১০২ -এর অপরাজিত ৭৭ রান ভারত

Stumps ভারত A 227 for 2 (Jaiswal 102, Sudharsan 77*, Ferns 1-16) vs নিউজিল্যান্ড A

Stumps ভারত A 227 for 2 (Jaiswal 102, Sudharsan 77*, Ferns 1-16) vs নিউজিল্যান্ড A। Yashasvi Jaiswal's 138-ball 102 was the highlight on what was an otherwise attritional day of cricket in the third four-day match in Lincoln as he continued to build his form ahead of ভারত's Test series in নিউজিল্যান্ড. Jaiswal took the attack to the নিউজিল্যান্ড A bowlers after ভারত A lost the toss and were asked to bat on a greentop, and brought up his second শতক in as many innings.। He dominated a 175-রান opening stand with B Sai Sudharsan, who finished the day unbeaten on 77, having secured his second অর্ধশতক of the series. ভারত A went to stumps at 227 for 2, with Devdutt Padikkal also falling before rain cut short the day's play.।

Having failed to reach 50 in the Tests against শ্রীলঙ্কা, bagged a duck in his solitary Ranji Trophy innings, and gotten out for scores of 17, 5 and 0 in his first three essays against নিউজিল্যান্ড A, Jaiswal - and the ভারত team management - will feel more relaxed after the 155 not out in the last game and his dominant knock on Saturday, where he also effortlessly switched gears.। Jaiswal and Sai Sudharsan had to start watchfully against নিউজিল্যান্ড's new-ball bowlers. Brett Randell, in particular, was threatening as he consistently bowled in the channel outside off to beat the two left-hand batters on the outside edge by getting the ball to straighten off the surface.। Zak Gibson, on the other hand, targeted Sai Sudharsan with inswingers with a leg slip in place.।

It wasn't until the 12th over that the batters got a delivery they could pounce on, when first-change Jarrod McKay overpitched and Sai Sudharsan drove him through the covers.। Jaiswal also targeted McKay, pulling him for six in his next over before hitting him for three fours in four balls. He first drove him down the ground and when McKay pulled the length back, Jaiswal steered him past the slip cordon. One ball later, with McKay going over the উইকেট, Jaiswal slashed a back-of-length delivery behind point.। Even with his recent trend of getting out to the cut, Jaiswal went after anything bowled short and across him as he helped ভারত get to 83 at lunch.।

The second session started in thrilling fashion. Bowling the second over after lunch, Randell beat Jaiswal on the outside edge a few times before Jaiswal square drove him for four to bring up his অর্ধশতক.। In Randell's next over, Jaiswal was beaten on his outside edge again and then skipped down the track and missed a drive.। He continued to attack, however, trying an expansive drive off the first ball of the next over against McKay, who began the session with two maidens, only to get a thick edge that was dropped by Matthew Boyle at first slip. That didn't dissuade Jaiswal, as he launched McKay for a hat-trick of fours. He flicked a full one over midwicket before slashing a short ball over point. McKay went full again, only to be driven crisply through mid-off. Jaiswal attempted another cut the next ball and missed, and his straight drive off the final ball of an eventful over was stopped by the বোলার.।

When Gibson replaced McKay, Jaiswal welcomed him back into the attack by clearing his front leg and swinging him over long-on for his second six.। Sai Sudharsan, who was happy to be watchful and turn the strike over while taking on anything overpitched, got to his অর্ধশতক off 129 deliveries, and slapped Dean Foxcroft wide of mid-off the next ball he faced.। Another cut through point took Jaiswal into the 90s. Then a late cut off Foxcroft went just wide of the slip fielder for another boundary before Jaiswal swept the next ball for back-to-back fours to bring up a 127-ball শতক.।

Just after his শতক, though, Jaiswal needed treatment for cramps, and soon after, chipped Danru Ferns - who was drafted into the নিউজিল্যান্ড A XI only minutes before toss because Adi Ashok dislocated his finger - to mid-off to fall for 102.। The post-tea session began with Sai Sudharsan and Padikkal playing watchfully, with the ball still nipping around. Padikkal, who struggled to find fluency, eventually nicked behind off Gibson when he angled one across him from over the উইকেট to fall for 15 off 53.। Sai Sudharsan, who has now faced 205 balls, and Dhruv Jurel continued to tick things along before rain arrived with around an hour of play left.।

loose shot and Jaiswal is gone. He tamely chips this lofted drive to mid-off. Came off the toe end I suspect. Wonder how much of that shot and the lack of concentration was down to the hamstring twinge he felt in the previous over. He looks bitterly disappointed, but it's been a fantastic innings nonetheless.। Padikkal plays a very loose drive outside off and gets a faint nick through to the keeper. Feet nowhere to the pitch, just hands through with the stroke and the seam movement has done the trick.।
