India U19 down Pakistan to secure Asia Cup title
Giving Pakistan a massive jolt and making a stunning comeback, India U19 overcame arch-rivals by one wicket and clinched the U19 Asia Cup 2026 trophy on Saturday in Oman. At one stage, India were in a horrible situation; however, their lower-order batters stood up and demonstrated a fighting spirit to help India execute a near-impossible chase.
Chasing a target of 338, India got a nice start, with captain Lakshya Raichandani slamming an impressive knock of 80 runs. There was also a valuable contribution from Aaryavir Sehwag, who shone with 58 runs. However, Pakistan fought back strongly, taking out key Indian batters. And that’s when Manal Chauhan chipped in with an innings of 47 runs off 32 balls to stage India's incredible comeback. Mohit Ulva also churned out a sensational performance, remaining unbeaten on 49 from 26 balls to anchor India to a splendid win.
Earlier, after deciding to bat, Pakistan put up a big total of 337/9 in 50. Opener Usman Khan blasted a brilliant 107 to set the side off to a promising start. Abdul Qadir starred with a quickfire 80 off 54 deliveries. Meanwhile, skipper Farhan Yousaf hit a crucial 63 off 60 balls. India, however, made a courageous comeback towards the end, claiming six wickets in the final six overs to put an end to Pakistan's scoring. Kavya Patel took four wickets, while C Venkata chipped in with three scalps.
