India A’s chase of 195 in the Asia Cup Rising Stars semifinal began at a blistering tempo thanks to an explosive cameo from opener Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, whose 15-ball 38 laid the platform for a high-octane pursuit. Facing a demanding equation from the outset, India A needed early momentum, and Sooryavanshi delivered exactly that with an innings packed with clean hitting and intent.

At that point, India A needed 129 runs from 82 balls, a challenging but manageable target given their long batting lineup.Priyansh Arya, batting on 21 off 11, continued to keep the scoreboard moving, but the responsibility now shifts to the middle order, Nehal Wadhera, captain-keeper Jitesh Sharma, and the power-hitters to follow, to convert Sooryavanshi ’s early brilliance into a match-winning chase.
