Dhruv Jurel's Unbeaten 113 Powers India ‘A’ To 403/4 Against Australia ‘A’ On Day 3
Dhruv Jurel: Dhruv Jurel notched up a brilliant unbeaten century as India ‘A’ continued to sail comfortably through their batting innings on Day 2 of the first unofficial Test against Australia ‘A’. The hosts closed the day’s play at 403/4 in 102 overs, still 129 runs adrift of the visitors’ first innings total but in good position to steer the game to a draw..
After yet another rain delay and a late start to the opening session, N. Jagadeesan and Sai Sudharsan continued from where they left off on Day 2, stitching a 49-run stand before Xavier Bartlett dismissed the former. However, Sudharsan, the Gujarat Titans batter, got to a fine half-century in the second session after Devdutt Padikkal joined him in the middle.
Australia ‘A’ all-rounder Cooper Connolly dismissed Sudharsan in the 59th over, but what hurt India the most was skipper Shreyas Iyer’s dismal outing. Expectations were at an all-time high as the Punjab Kings captain, who was unexpectedly given a cold shoulder by the national selectors for the recent Asia Cup, walked into the field.
