India began their chase strongly through captain Lakshya Rajesh Raichandani, who made 80 off 101 balls, and Aaryavir Sehwag, who scored 58 off 61 deliveries. Sehwag, 15, also recreated Virat Kohli's bat-down celebration after reaching his half-century. Pakistan later kept taking wickets and the match appeared to be slipping away from India before Manal Chauhan and Mohit Ulva produced crucial innings to revive the chase.S1S2
Ulva finished unbeaten on 49 off 26 balls and struck the winning boundary off Ahmed Hussain's final delivery to complete the victory. Despite the closeness of the result, the two sides skipped the customary post-match handshakes after the final, Sportstar reported.S1S2
