During the video call, Aaryavir Sehwag explained how tense the final moments were. He told his father, Virender Sehwag, "Papa, I was so nervous… I was just chanting Sita Ram, Sita Ram.”
India needed seven runs from the last six balls, with Pakistan's Ahmed Hussain bowling and the Indian last pair trying to finish the job in the U-19 Asia Cup 2026 final. The first delivery was a dot ball, and Pakistan also came close to getting a stumping against Mohit Ulva.
However, a wide on the next delivery gave India some relief. Manal Chauhan and Ulva then collected singles from the next three balls, bringing the equation down to three runs from the final delivery.
With the entire match depending on the last ball, Ulva delivered the perfect finish. He smashed Ahmed Hussain's final delivery over long-off for a boundary and helped India to lift the record ninth Under-19 Asia Cup title. Ulva remained unbeaten on 49 runs from just 26 balls.
