Virender Sehwag was also present in the stadium to see his son's debut. However, Aryaveer's debut could not be as memorable as his expectations and he was out after scoring 28 runs in 26 balls.
20 over match due to rain
Due to rain in Rajkot, the match was reduced from 50 overs to 20-20 overs. In such a situation, the Indian opening batsmen had the challenge of scoring runs quickly from the beginning. Aryaveer hit some good shots and also hit five fours in his innings, but his innings ended at the score of 28 runs in 26 balls. The expectations of a big innings from him in the debut match could not be fulfilled.
