151 off 100: Rahul Dravid's son blasts second ton in three innings to ace massive U19 chase

Anvay Dravid delivered a masterclass in aggressive yet calculated batting to power Karnataka to a thrilling U19 victory in the Vinoo Mankad Trophy. Facing Gujarat at Vizzy Stadium, he stepped in at number four with the team reeling at 63-2 and proceeded to anchor a 204-run partnership with Dhruv Krishnan (130*), accelerating Karnataka’s chase of 359.

His unbeaten 151 off 100 balls—featuring 20 fours and three sixes—propelled his side to a five-wicket win in 45.3 overs, securing their spot in the knockout stages. The innings capped a remarkable tournament for Dravid, who had already scored centuries in his previous two matches (85* vs.

Delhi and 104 vs. Chandigarh) and previously impressed in Youth ODIs against Australia (38 off 18) and Sri Lanka (87 off 67).

His only setback came in the tournament opener, where he was dismissed for 18 as Karnataka fell short against Jharkhand.
