The U-19 Bangladesh cricket team created history by winning the U-19 World Cup 2020 final but there was a bit of controversy after the match as there was a 'fight' that broke after the match. The Twitterati quickly got onto their favorite social media platform and voiced out their opinions.

This is what happened!

Shameful end to a wonderful game of cricket.

Some serious aggression between the 2 teams after the final!

Great scenes as win the . The crowd and team are so emotional. Sad to see some serious aggro between the teams at the end as the Indians walked off. Incredible moment for Bangladesh cricket though. Understandable they are so intense

Well done Bangladesh for winning the U-19 World Cup! Read about how they worked to build this team since the last 2 years.. good for their future and for the game in whole! Also loved how their captain did not celebrate before actually winning the match.. learning from seniors 😉

Calm down, we don't know the reason yet!

What a shameful act from Indian players and fans .. such a shame .. No sportsmanship. Pathetic.. India should ban from CKTWC next time by .

Totally agree with this!

Absolutely no need to get into a a scuffle. Not the scenes you want yo watch, Let the Bangladesh boys enjoy and there is no need for the Indian team to get provoked.

It appears that some of the trouble after the end of the Under 19 World Cup Final between Bangladesh and India was due to words being exchanged and one of the Indian players grabbing the Bangladesh flag from the opposition

Salty much?

Salty Indians 🤷🏻‍♀️

But we all need to appreciate Bangladesh for this win!

While the senior cricket team is struggling against Pakistan in Rawalpindi, the junior Bangladesh team has made their nation proudest that they could have been!

Congratulations to the U19 Bangla Tigers for winning the WC!

The historic moment!

Bangladesh have done it! And as ever with the best of our game, Ian Bishop does a great moment justice.

Absolute scenes!

This is heartbreaking!

India have lost only 2 out of 18 games in the last three U19 World Cups. Both defeats came in the finals - against WI in Dhaka in 2016 and Bangladesh in Potch today.

Finally, the Bangladeshis get their win!
