Watch: Virender Sehwag’s son Aaryavir recreates his dad’s trademark shots

Virender Sehwag's son, Aaryavir Sehwag, displayed a striking resemblance to his legendary father during a cricket match in the Delhi Premier League 2026. Playing for West Delhi Lions, Aaryavir scored 22 runs off just 14 balls, showcasing four boundaries in his brief innings. The most noteworthy moment came when he executed a backfist shot that bore an uncanny resemblance to the iconic shot played by his father during his illustrious international career.

The Delhi Premier League shared both Aaryavir's shot and Sehwag's action side by side on social media, drawing attention to the striking similarities in their technique. While Aaryavir is still early in his cricketing career, this moment highlights the potential for him to carry on the fearless and attacking batting style inherited from his father, Virender Sehwag.
