Anvay Dravid, son of legendary Rahul Dravid, displayed his potential with a 67-ball 87, but opener Dimantha Mahavithana made an unbeaten 155 to guide Sri Lanka U-19 to an eight-wicket win over India U-19 in the second Youth ODI here on Monday.<\/p>\n

Anvay\u2019s innings led India to a competitive 285 but Mahavithana\u2019s 153-ball knock helped SL U-19 reach 291 for two in 48 overs.<\/p>\n

The three-match series is now tied at 1-1.<\/p>\n

Mahavithana was involved in two big stands \u2014 a 103-run alliance for the second wicket with Senuja Wekunagoda (60) and then made 163 with skipper Vimath Dinsara (56 not out) for the unbroken third wicket.<\/p>\n

Earlier, electing to bat, India U19 slipped to 81 for four in the 19th over but found saviours in Anvay, who struck nine fours and a six, and Arjun Rajput (76, 81b).<\/p>\n

Wicketkeeper-batter Anvay and Rajput added 145 runs for the fifth wicket to take India to 221 before the latter was caught short of his crease by Mahavithana\u2019s throw.<\/p>\n

Anvay was quite aggressive during his stay, hammering Chamika Heenatigala for a six and four in successive balls and fetching his first-ever Youth ODI fifty in 47 balls.<\/p>\n

A century was there for his taking, but Anvay fell to left-arm pacer Gimhan Mendis, the star for Sri Lanka with figures of five for 41.<\/p>\n

His departure reduced India U19 to 263 for seven, and the visitor soon folded, losing the remaining three wickets for 22 runs.<\/p>\n

India U19 had won the first match of the series to take a 1-0 lead, after beating the home side by four wickets.<\/p>\n

On that occasion, the Indian colts chased down 321 with four balls to spare, even though Anvay could only make 14.<\/p>\n
