IND U19 vs PAK U19 Final Scorecard: Vaibhav Suryavanshi, India's young batting sensation, was quick to give it back to Pakistan during the final of the ongoing ACC Men's U19 Asia Cup 2025 at the ICC Academy Ground in Dubai on Sunday. Soon after he was dismissed, Suryavanhi had a heated chat with Pakistan pacer Ali Raza that caught everyone's attention.

After Pakistan posted a mammoth total of 347/8 in their 50 overs, India kicked off their run chase in style with Suryavanshi displaying his attacking intent in the very first over. He smashed multiple boundaries in the first over to take out 21 runs from the opening over off Raza.

India lost early wickets as skipper Ayush Mhatre (2) and Aaron George (16) departed cheaply. After Mhatre's dismissal off Raza, there was a heated exchange between the players of the two sides. The Men in Green got the massive breakthrough when Suryavanshi edged one to the keeper off Raza in the fifth over. While Suryavanshi was dismissed for 26 runs in 10 balls, he responded to Raza's aggressive celebration.

The gestures from Suryavanshi showed that he was not happy with whatever was said to him, and he tried to give a fitting reply.

Earlier, Pakistan took the upper hand after being put into bat first on the back of a batting masterclass from Sameer Minhas. The right-handed batter entered his name in the record books, smashing an outstanding century. He went on to play a memorable knock of 172 runs in 113 balls, hitting 17 fours and nine sixes.

Ahmed Hussain also smashed a crucial half-century, scoring 56 runs in 72 balls. His 137-run stand with Minhas laid the foundation for a huge total for Pakistan. Notably, India headed into the final on the back of victories in all of their league stage matches, including a dominating win over the arch-rivals Pakistan.
