HPL U18 "graduated" means they play until U18 not play until U16 then go to whitecaps or mens division.
When player were recruited in their first year their last club is listed. Over 5 years these players play for different teams during off season like Whitecaps U23, TSS or some premier team...

India won 2 out of last 4. It is 50% success rate. They were only 5 minutes away from going 3 out of last 4. That would have been 75% success rate. One can use the stats how ever they want to prove their point. It was a great final and congratulations to team Italy.
