4.    Shahzaib Khan (Pakistan)

From the same competition, it was the clash between the two arch-rivals, India and Pakistan, at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Batted first, Pakistan’s opener, Shahzaib Khan, nailed 159 runs in 147 balls at a strike rate of 108.16, thanks to five boundaries and 16 sixes. He also decorated a 160-run opening stand with Usman Khan, who blasted 60 runs in 94 balls.

In the 282-run chase, the Indian side was bundled out for 238 runs, with only Nikhil Kumar getting 67 runs. The other batters got their starts but were not able to convert them into a big score. The Saad Baig-led side claimed the win by 43 runs.

3. Vaibhav Suryavanshi (India)

Vaibhav Suryavanshi ended with 171 runs in the clash against the United Arab Emirates. On the opening game of the U-19 Asia Cup in Dubai, the southpaw creamed the knock despite them losing their captain, Ayush Mhatre, in the third over of the first innings. UAE bowled well at patches, but once the Bihar batter got a few balls out of the middle of his blade, there was no respite for the bowlers.

Suryavanshi, heading into the event, didn’t enjoy a great run in the 50-over format with just 132 runs in six innings at an average of 22, thanks to one half-century. However, this century will be a massive confidence booster for the 14-year-old moving into the future.

2. Meet Bhavsar (Kuwait)

Meanwhile, Mohammad Alam smashed 49 runs in 42 balls at a strike rate of 116.66 with the help of two fours and five sixes.

Kuwait were never in the chase as they kept losing wickets from one end with their captain, Meet Bhavsar, seeking others to at least hold their crease. But he slammed an unbeaten knock of 175 runs in 149 balls at a strike rate of 117.44 with 24 boundaries and one six to take them over the line by one wicket with seven balls to spare.

Bangladesh faced Qatar in the clash as the opening batter of the Bangladesh side, Soumya Sarkar, played a fabulous knock of 209 runs in 135 balls at a strike rate of 154.81 with the help of 27 boundaries and eight sixes. That remains the only double century of the U-19 ODIs.
