Aaryavir Sehwag, son of former India opener Virender Sehwag, scored 58 off 61 balls in the final of the U19 Asia Cup 2026 against Pakistan, capping off the tournament on a high. Having already impressed at the event with his superb knocks, Aaryavir slammed nine fours in the final to score yet another half-century. In the summit clash, the right-handed batter also battled through pain to reach the milestone. He copped a blow below his elbow while facing a fast bowler but continued his innings despite the discomfort in the high-octane encounter.

Opener Usman Khan struck a composed 107, guiding defending champions Pakistan to a strong 337 for nine against India in the Under-19 Asia Cup final on Saturday.

Usman first stitched a quick 62-run partnership with his opening partner Hayam Khan in just 8.1 overs.

But that was just an appetiser as Usman, who reached his hundred in 106 balls, and one-down batter Abdul Qadir (80) added 135 runs in a mere 18 overs as Pakistan gained complete control in the middle overs.

Qadir was the dominant partner, making 80 off just 54 balls, and reached his maiden Youth ODI fifty in 39 balls.

He carted left-arm spinner Manal Chauhan and off-spinner Yashbardhan Chauhan for two sixes in a row.

But Qadir's aggression eventually ended his stay as an uppish drive off Arjun Rajput ended in the hands of VK Vineeth at cover.

Usman too did not last long as a rather wild slash off pacer Kavya Patel (4/68) was snaffled by Rajput at mid-off.

At 240 for three in 36 overs, Pakistan had a fine platform to move further away from India.

Skipper Farhan Yousaf made a 63-ball 60 to help Pakistan go past 300.

Pacers Kavya and C Venkata (3/40) picked up some late wickets, but by then Pakistan had already reached a formidable total.
