Aryavir Sehwag, who entered cricket as the successor of Indian cricket legend Virender Sehwag, seemed to be a son worthy of his father. Aryavir, who is representing the Delhi team in the ongoing Vinoo Mankad Trophy (Under-19 One-Day Tournament), caught everyone's attention with a devastating century. He came into the field as an opener in the match against Chandigarh and created a tsunami of runs.
He scored a huge score of 173 runs in just 143 balls with the help of 19 boundaries and 8 sixes, reminding his father of his explosive batting style. The 18-year-old Aryavir also made his debut for the Indian Under-19 team recently and impressed. He scored 109 runs in the three-match series and showed good talent. Even though Delhi team is at the last position in 'Group-E' in the Vinoo Mankad Trophy, Aryavir is the only one who is fighting alone and shining in the team.
Being the son of Virender Sehwag, there are naturally high expectations and pressure on Aryavir. However, he is overcoming them with his performance and making a mark for himself. Speaking about the advice he gave to his son in the past, Sehwag said, "I am proud of Aryavir. I know there will be pressure, but I told him to play freely without thinking about it. Reveal yourself on the field, don't worry about big scores. I advised you that if you play freely, the runs will come."
Meanwhile, the descendants of the greats are shining in this tournament. Another legendary cricketer Rahul Dravid's son Anvy Dravid is also performing brilliantly for the Karnataka Under-19 team. He also received praise for scoring a century and a blistering innings of 85 runs off just 41 balls. Now, all eyes are on this young generation of players.
