IND vs MAS Live Score, ACC Men's U19 Asia Cup 2025: Abhigyan Kundu stars as India crush Malaysia by 315 runs
The spotlight once again shines on teenage batting prodigy Vaibhav Suryavanshi. The 14-year-old grabbed global attention with a sensational 171 off 95 balls against UAE — the highest-ever individual score in U19 Asia Cup history and India’s second-highest in youth ODIs. His innings powered India to a record 433/6 and a crushing 234-run win. However, expectations were tempered when he managed just five runs against Pakistan, despite India cruising to a comprehensive 90-run victory powered by disciplined bowling from Kanishk Chouhan and Deepesh Devendran.
Malaysia believe they can exploit that opening. Captain Deeaz Patro and all-rounder Muhammad Aalif have revealed specific plans to counter Suryavanshi, stressing disciplined bowling and smart field placements. Deeaz, who has strong Indian roots through his Odisha-born father and idolises David Warner, wears jersey No. 31 in tribute to the former Australian opener. Aalif, meanwhile, draws inspiration from Virat Kohli’s aggression and mindset.
While India may rotate players and focus on combinations, Malaysia are motivated to challenge the tournament favourites and make the contest memorable.

Much of the focus once again will be on 14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who stunned the cricketing world with a breathtaking 171 off 95 balls against UAE — an innings featuring 14 sixes and nine fours. However, the teenage sensation fell cheaply for five against Pakistan, showing that he is still a work in progress despite his immense talent.
Malaysia captain Deeaz Patro and all-rounder Muhammad Aalif have expressed confidence in their plans to contain Suryavanshi, drawing inspiration from Pakistan’s approach. Deeaz, who has Indian roots and idolises David Warner, and Aalif, a self-confessed Virat Kohli fan, see the contest as a major learning opportunity. For India, the match offers a chance to test bench strength and fine-tune combinations ahead of the knockouts.
