In the semi-final against Australia, Dhull had scored a century. He became just the third Indian after Kohli and Unmukht Chand to score a century in the history of the U19 World Cup.

"The morale is high, everyone is excited about the game. We will enter the contest with a positive frame of mind. England played a close match against Afghanistan, we will make our own game plans. We will look to carry our form into the final. Our spinners are nice, we will look to execute our plans," said Dhull.

"Everyone is ready to give their 100 percent, we will enter the final with a positive mindset. We are here to represent the country. We have gotten more experienced, we now know the value of time and how to prepare mentally for big games. Our game has also improved, we have learnt how to deal with pressure," he added.

Earlier, Dhull had tested positive for COVID-19 and he had missed the group-stage games against Uganda and Ireland.

"It was a tough time, we were mentally strong then and we knew that we will give our 100 percent when we go back to the field. England plays a dominating brand of cricket and they do not leave attacking cricket even if they lose wickets. We will look to follow our plans and bowl as many dot balls as possible," said Dhull.

"We will see the wicket and we will make our game plan accordingly. We will take the final as just another game. It is a game, we will give our 100 percent and we are confident that the result will go our way."
