An unusual moment unfolded during the fifth over of India’s chase in the Under-19 Asia Cup final against Pakistan at Al Amerat on Saturday, when Pakistan appealed for obstruction of the field against Aaryavir Sehwag.
Facing Ali Raza off the third ball of the fifth over, Sehwag stepped down the pitch but was struck on the thighs by the delivery. The ball dropped just in front of his feet, and as Sehwag moved it away with his bat, Pakistan appealed, seemingly questioning whether the Indian batter had deliberately obstructed the field.
The appeal, however, did not gather much momentum. The umpires appeared unmoved and allowed play to continue without further discussion or any formal intervention.
India, chasing a target of 338 for victory, was still in the early stages of its pursuit when the incident occurred.
