U19 Asia Cup: MS Dhoni’s Legacy Lives On as Harvansh Singh Pulls Off Iconic Run-Out in U19 Asia Cup

Indian wicket-keepers have always been special in the team, and Harvansh Singh showcased why during India U19’s match against UAE U19 in the 2024 Asia Cup. Harvansh replicated a famous MS Dhoni-style no-look run-out that immediately caught the attention of fans and commentators. The moment occurred when a UAE batter hit a shot stopped near the boundary, and the ball was quickly returned to Harvansh.

Without looking at the stumps, Harvansh instinctively flicked the ball onto the stumps, attempting a no-look run-out. Though the batter had already reached the crease safely, the awareness and quick reflexes displayed by Harvansh were highly praised, drawing comparisons to Dhoni’s iconic run-out moments.

India dominated the match, securing a 10-wicket victory. The UAE team had batted first, posting a total of 137 runs, which India chased down in just 17 overs. Ayush Mhatre played a vital knock of 67 runs off 51 balls, while Vaibhav Suryavanshi contributed a powerful 76 runs off 46 balls. This comprehensive win helped India qualify for the semi-final of the tournament, highlighting their potential and the emerging talents like Harvansh Singh behind the stumps.
