Sehwag stars with 160, Sood takes four as India enter U19 Asia Cup semis

By Tridib Baparnash
New Delhi, Nov 10 (UNI) Aaryavir Sehwag, the son of former India opener Virender Sehwag, struck a commanding 160 to power India to a 60-run victory over the UAE and seal their place in the semi-finals of the Under-19 Asia Cup.
India will now take on Afghanistan for a place in the final, after Ishan Sood's four-wicket haul helped wrap up the win.
Batting first, India posted 309 for 7 in their allotted 50 overs, with Sehwag anchoring the innings in style. The right-hander smashed 17 fours and seven sixes to put the UAE attack under sustained pressure.
The junior Sehwag found an able partner in V K Vineeth as the duo stitched together a massive 193-run stand for the second wicket. Vineeth contributed 65, providing solid support as India built the platform for a formidable total, the highest of the tournament.
The UAE faced a challenging task in the chase and eventually managed 239 before being bowled out in 50 overs. Ahmed Khudadad offered resistance with a top score of 74, while Noorullah Ayobi chipped in with 39, but the target proved beyond their reach.
Sood led India's bowling effort with figures of 4 for 37, breaking through the UAE batting line-up and ensuring there was no late twist in the contest.
The 60-run win confirmed India's place in the last four, where they will face Afghanistan.
