India A vs England Lions, 2nd Unofficial Test Day 4, Highlights: India A's 2nd Unofficial Test against England Lions has ended in a draw. India A (348 and 417/7d) took a huge lead but England Lions (327 and 32/3) ensured there were no late hiccups. The two unofficial Tests are part of preparation for the five-Test series against England that starts on June 20. From the main Indian cricket squad, KL Rahul, Abhimanyu Easwaran, Shardul Thakur, Nitish Kumar Reddy and Dhruv Jurel played the second unofficial Test. Here's how the top star have performed:
KL Rahul scored 116 in the first innings while in the second he got out on 51. Abhimanyu Easwaran, who is being seen as a back-up opener, scored 11 and 80 in both the innings. Shardul Thakur (19 and 34) and Nitish Kumar Reddy (42 and 34) - the two prime contenders for the fast bowling all-rounder's slot in the Test series against England - could not score big despite promising starts. Out of the two, only Reddy took one wicket in the first innings. Wicketkeeper-batter Dhruv Jurel scored 52 and 28 in the two innings.
Among the other notable performers were Tanush Kotian (90*) and Anshul Kamboj (51*) - both in second innings. Left-arm pacer Khaleel Ahmed took a four-wicket haul in the first innings. Anshul Kamboj and Tushar Desapande returned with a match haul of three wickets each. (Scorecard)
