Rajkot, September 18 - India U-19 secured a seven-run victory over Australia U-19 in a rain-shortened Youth ODI at the Niranjan Shah Stadium, thanks to a late flurry from Anvay Dravid and a half-century from Yashbardhan Chauhan. Aaryavir Sehwag, son of Virender Sehwag, made his India U-19 debut, scoring 28 off 26 balls with five fours.
The match, initially scheduled for 20 overs per side, was reduced to 20 overs each due to weather interruptions. Australia U-19 was dismissed for 175 for seven, despite a strong start from openers Neel Patel and Hayden Barbulovic. Anvay Dravid, whose father was in the crowd, was the standout performer for India, contributing significantly with his explosive innings.
