Aaryavir Sehwag Bags Another Fifty [Source: Instagram]
Aaryavir Sehwag and ‘consistency’ are two words that are synonymous now, given Virender Sehwag’s son’s excellent performances in the ongoing U19 Asia Cup 2026. Playing against the Afghanistan U19 team, Aaryavir has again brought up another fifty with a composed yet calculated approach.
Aaryavir Sehwag bagged a 57-ball 51 in the match as an opener as India chased a target of 228 runs during the 2nd Semi-Final of the tournament on November 12.
Aaryavir Sehwag contributes with consistency in U19 Asia Cup 2026
Aaryavir Sehwag, the cricketer who opens for the India U19 team and produces flashes of mighty knocks, often produced another gritty effort in the IND U19 vs AFG U19 clash. Sehwag struck four boundaries and 4 sixes in the match at a strike rate of 89.47 to add to the partnership of Lakshya Raichandani for 117 runs for the first wicket.
Aaryavir completed his fifty from 56 deliveries and was dismissed in the 17th over by Noor Niazi. Niazi delivered a hard-length delivery outside off with extra bounce, and Sehwag looked to play the pull shot. However, he got a top edge, and a fielder took a good catch while moving backwards.
Notably, this fifty was just a flash of the consistency he has maintained in the tournament so far. Aaryavir slammed a massive 160 against the UAE earlier while also scoring 70 against Nepal in the tournament opener. He already has 303 runs from 4 innings and currently averages 101 at a strike rate of 95.58.
How Aaryavir broke into the cricketing scene?
Inspired by his father, Aaryavir took to cricket at a very young age. Playing for training academies and small tournaments, Aaryavir quickly caught the attention of Delhi state selectors and coaches like Ajit Chaudhary after scoring his maiden double century in Under-17 cricket.
His massive intent with the bat came to the forefront in November 2024, while representing Delhi Under-19 against Meghalaya in the Cooch Behar Trophy, when he hammered 297 off 309 balls, consisting of 51 fours and 3 sixes.
Aaryavir also left his mark in the Delhi Premier League and was appointed captain of the Delhi Under-19 side before the 2026-27 domestic season. He also led from the front in the Vinoo Mankad Trophy, smashing an explosive 173 off 143 balls before playing under Lakshya in the U19 Asia Cup 2026.
