Masterclass by Sehwag: Maiden Century Powers India Over UAE in U-19 Asia Cup

Aaryavir Sehwag, son of the legendary Virender Sehwag, delivered a stellar performance in India’s must-win Group A fixture of the Under-19 Asia Cup 2026 against the United Arab Emirates on Tuesday, November 10, by scoring his maiden international century off 131 balls at the Al Amerat Cricket Ground in Oman, where India had been asked to bat first and lost their skipper Lakshya Rajesh Raichandani for 17 runs early on, prompting Sehwag to adapt brilliantly to the challenging conditions by curbing his natural aggression, prioritizing strike rotation, and showing incredible composure to reach his hundred when India touched 159, complementing his earlier tournament contributions of an unbeaten 70 against Nepal and 22 against Pakistan, and setting up a formidable platform for India as they seek a victory to secure the final semi-final berth from Group A behind Pakistan in this tense knockout-style encounter.
