Abhigyan Kundu has lit up the stage with his flamboyant batting. During the India vs Malaysia Asia Cup U-19 match, the young batter smashed a confident double century. The bowlers of Malaysia have had no clue how to stop this middle-order batter at the Sevens Stadium in the United Arab Emirates.

Who is Abhigyan Kundu, who scored a century in the Asia Cup U-19 match?

Abhigyan Kundu is an emerging wicketkeeper-batter who has evolved into a constant figure in the youth team of India. Ahead of the Asia Cup Under-19 tournament, he was struggling with form. But he found his rhythm in a crucial match. The match against Malaysia is important for the team, as they got a thrilling win against the archrival Pakistan in the previous game of the contest.

While writing this article, the left-handed batter was in the middle for an unbeaten 168 off 113. So far, he has hit 14 boundaries and five over-boundaries. And India is piling on runs with ease. Already, the youth set-up of the Men in Blue claimed 360 runs in 47.1 overs, and they still have 5 wickets in hand, which shows the pure dominance of India in the match.

During the initial stage of the match, it was Vaibhav Suryavanshi who initiated the carnage by scoring a quick half-century. Then, Vedant Trivedi registered a well-controlled 90-run knock. Above all, it is Abhigyan Kundu who appeared as the showstopper in the match.
