Watch: India players celebrate aggressively after U-19 Asia Cup win vs Pakistan

India's U-19 cricket team won the Asia Cup title with a nail-biting finish against Pakistan. The match came down to the final ball when Mohit Ulva scored a crucial boundary off the last delivery to propel India to a one-wicket victory. Celebrations erupted as soon as Ulva struck the winning run, with some players even paying celebratory gestures to their opponents.

The match had witnessed Pakistan's strong performance, as they posted a formidable 337 for nine in their innings. However, India's resilient pair of Manal Chauhan and Mohit Ulva led the charge in the final overs, holding their composure under pressure. Chauhan's aggressive innings of 47, including 32 boundaries, along with Ulva's 49 not out, kept India in the hunt.

Their partnership for the ninth wicket, totaling 95 runs, was instrumental in India's fightback. Pakistan's captain, Farhan Yousaf, scored 60 runs, while Kavya Patel and Arjun Rajput claimed crucial late wickets for their team.
