In the first of those, against Trinidad and Tobago, he was out for a duck, while against the Combined Campuses and Colleges he made 18 not out. [2] Sewdial did not debut for the national under-19 side until the following year, at the 2009 Americas Under-19 Championship.

At the 2010 World Cup, Sewdial was appointed vice-captain to Shiva Vashishat. [4] He went on to play in all six of his team's matches, [5] and was the leading runscorer for the U.S., finishing with 125 runs at an average of 31.25. [6] Aged 18 at the time of the World Cup, Sewdial remained eligible for the under-19 team for another year, and consequently was able to play at the 2011 World Cup Qualifier in Ireland. [3] Appointed team captain, [7] he was once again amongst the leading runscorers for the U.S., and against Kenya scored 68 from 103 balls, which saw him named man of the match. [8] Sewdial has not been selected in any further national squads since that tournament, [3] and has been hampered by recurring ankle injuries, which have required several surgeries. [9] [10]
