At the Rural Development Trust Stadium \u2018A\u2019, Mulani\u2019s 89 runs helped India A come out of 93\/5 to post 290 in the first innings. He also got support from Kumar Kushagra and Tanush Kotian to ensure India A posted a respectable total, which kept them ahead of India D in the match.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Mulani also took four wickets with his left-arm spin bowling in India A\u2019s massive triumph.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cIt was tough in this heat. I am used to it. I wanted to replicate what I do for my state team. Discipline while batting helped me a lot. The wicket was getting a little slower. One odd ball was gripping. What I spoke to the captain and coach, they told me to bowl in consistent areas,\u201d he said after the match ended.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
With this win, India A have six points and are in the running alongside India B and India C to be winners of the Duleep Trophy.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cVery happy with the win. The way we played in the first innings after the first session changed the game for us. The way we bowled in the first innings set it up for us.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cBecause we knew there was not a lot on offer. If you bowl with consistency, it isn't easy for the batters. We spoke about creating an environment for the players that they will do well,\u201d said India A captain Mayank Agarwal.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Shreyas Iyer, the India D skipper, credited Mulani and Kotian for taking the game away through their stand of 91 runs for the seventh wicket in the first innings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cRight from the first ball, we were on the mark. Picked up four wickets. But Shams and Kotian have been performing brilliantly. That partnership of 120 plus took away the momentum,\u201d Iyer said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
