2nd Unofficial Test: Bad Light Forces Early Stumps, England Lions’ Trail India ‘A’ By 156 Runs
Resuming Day Two: Tom Haines and Emilio Gay smashed fifties each before bad light forced an early end to the second day of the second unofficial Test between England Lions and India ‘A’ at County Ground in Northampton on Saturday. At stumps, England Lions had reached 192/3 in 46 overs and trailed India ‘A’ by 156 runs.
Resuming Day Two’s play from 319/7 in 83 overs, India ‘A’ received early blows when Josh Tongue removed overnight batters Tanush Kotian and Anshul Kamboj quickly. Khaleel Ahmed and Tushar Deshpande tried taking India ‘A’ to 350, but a direct hit from Tongue caught the latter short of his crease to wrap up the visitors’ innings at 348 in 89.3 overs.
In reply, Ahmed and Kamboj found swing but were either bowling too straight or gave lots of width, resulting in Haines, the centurion from the first unofficial Test, keeping the scoreboard ticking. While Khaleel bowled three overs, Kamboj had an extended spell.
