Aaryavir Sehwag hits 70 as India U-19 beat Nepal by 10 wickets in Asia Cup
India's Under-19 team chased down Nepal's 129 in just 19.1 overs without losing a wicket, with Aaryavir Sehwag smashing 70 off 52 balls.
India's Under-19 side has opened its Asia Cup campaign in style. They beat Nepal by 10 wickets, and not a single batter was dismissed.
Nepal set a target of 129. India chased it down in just 19.1 overs, which means they finished with 30.5 overs to spare in the 50-over match. Ishan Sood took three wickets with the ball, helping keep the target small.
The chase belonged to Aaryavir Sehwag. He stayed not out on 70 off 52 balls, hitting seven fours and four sixes along the way. At the other end, Lakshya Raichandani also remained unbeaten, scoring 53 off 63 balls with seven boundaries.
A ten-wicket win with so much time left is about as comfortable as an opening game gets. India will hope to carry that momentum into the rest of the tournament.
