Aaryavir Sehwag, the talented son of former India cricketer Virender Sehwag, stole the spotlight on Thursday with a remarkable performance in the Cooch Behar Trophy match between Delhi and Meghalaya. The 17-year-old Aaryavir showcased his skills by scoring an impressive double century, remaining unbeaten at 200 runs as Delhi took a commanding 208-run lead at the MCA Cricket Ground in Shillong.

The Cooch Behar Trophy is a prestigious four-day cricket tournament organized by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) for Under-19 players.

In the first innings, hosts Meghalaya could only manage to score 260 runs. Aaryavir and his opening partner Arnav S Bugga set the tone for Delhi's strong response by putting together a solid partnership of 180 runs for the first wicket. Bugga went on to score a century before being dismissed on Day 2, while Aaryavir continued his impressive form and remained unbeaten on 200 off just 229 balls.
