Aryavir Sehwag Shines with a Double Century for Delhi
Aryavir Sehwag, son of former Indian opener Virender Sehwag, showcased his talent and potential by scoring a remarkable double century in the Cooch Behar Trophy. Representing Delhi, the 16-year-old smashed an unbeaten 200 runs off just 229 balls against Meghalaya. His explosive innings featured 34 boundaries and two sixes, reflecting a batting style reminiscent of his father’s attacking approach.
Delhi’s Dominance Against Meghalaya
The match saw Delhi completely dominate Meghalaya. Batting first, Meghalaya was bowled out for 260 runs, with Delhi’s Udvav Mohan taking four wickets. In response, Aryavir and his opening partner, Arnav S Bagga, put on a stellar 180-run partnership. Bagga contributed a brilliant century, while Aryavir continued his aggressive innings to reach 200*. By the end of Day 2, Delhi had posted 468/2, leading by 208 runs. Alongside Aryavir, Dhanya Nakra remained unbeaten on 98, close to his own milestone.
A Promising Start to a Cricket Career
Aryavir Sehwag’s double century is not his first standout performance. He made his debut in the Vinoo Mankad Trophy earlier in October, scoring a crucial 49 runs against Manipur to guide his team to a six-wicket victory. His consistent performances at such a young age have already started to draw attention in Indian domestic cricket.
Virender Sehwag’s Words of Encouragement
Virender Sehwag has often expressed pride in his son’s dedication to cricket. In a previous interview on Star Sports, the former cricketer revealed that Aryavir has been working hard to secure an IPL contract. According to Sehwag, the IPL has become a significant platform for young players to showcase their talent and secure opportunities to represent India. Aryavir’s progress in domestic cricket reflects the same determination to achieve higher goals.
Future Prospects
Aryavir’s performance in the Cooch Behar Trophy is a testament to his talent and work ethic. With the guidance of his father and consistent performances, Aryavir is poised to make a strong mark in Indian cricket. His journey will undoubtedly inspire many aspiring young cricketers.
