New Delhi: Khaleel Ahmed’s impressive four-wicket haul has given India A a significant advantage over the England Lions in the second unofficial Test at Northampton.
Chennai Super Kings’ bowlers dominated the day’s play, starting with Khaleel Ahmed’s impressive four-wicket haul, including the key dismissals of Jordan Cox, James Rew, and George Hill. Tushar Deshpande contributed two wickets, and Tanush Kotian, Nitish Kumar Reddy, and Anshul Kamboj each claimed a wicket, helping restrict the opposition to 192/3.
It was KL Rahul’s century and a fine fifty by Dhruv Jurel that helped India A score 348. Although Rahul sat out the first warm-up match, he soon handled the conditions well in England, while Jurel kept scoring with another half-century.
The Indian squad had a practice session at Lord’s Cricket Ground. With head coach Gautam Gambhir and the new strength and conditioning coach Adrian Le Roux, the team was able to use the indoor areas. Although Rishabh Pant and Jasprit Bumrah worked out by playing football and throwing to batsmen in bowling drills, the others concentrated on serious cricket exercises. That session was the team’s first time practicing in London since their arrival.
