Harshit Rana Scalps 4-44 As India Bowl Out Australian Prime Minister's XI For 240
Australian Prime Minister: Fast-bowling all-rounder Harshit Rana picked 4-44 as India bowled out Australian Prime Minister's XI for 240 in 43.2 overs in the pink-ball warm-up game at the Manuka Oval on Sunday.
After day one of their two-day pink-ball tour match was washed out due to rain, India elected to bowl first in a curtailed 50-overs-a-side contest. Young batter Sam Konstas shined by hitting a 90-ball century, which puts more pressure on Australia’s out of form batter Marnus Labuschagne, as well as newbie opener Nathan McSweeney, who didn’t do much on debut at Perth.
But Rana taking four wickets in six balls ensured India kept PM’s XI to 10 runs below 250. Opener Matthew Renshaw fell early after nicking off to second slip off Mohammed Siraj for just five, and was followed by Jayden Goodwin giving an edge behind to keeper off Akash Deep, as the PM XI’s scoreboard read 22/2 after 5.5 overs.
