Brilliant innings of Tilak Verma and Rinku Singh

Playing ahead of the first day’s score, the second day’s play was entirely the name of the Indian batsmen. Young middle-order batsman Tilak Verma displayed tremendous batting and scored a brilliant century. He faced the South African bowlers bravely and hit many attractive shots in his innings.

Supporting the captain very well, explosive batsman Rinku Singh also played an important half-century. The partnership between the two put the South African team on the back foot and laid the foundation for a big score for India ‘A’. The lower order batsmen also made useful contributions and took the team’s score further.

South African team on back foot

By the end of the second day’s play, India ‘A’ had made a huge score, in response to which the South African team did not have a good start. The visiting team, which came to bat in the last session of the day, lost early wickets to the Indian bowlers.

At the same time, the Indian bowlers, while maintaining their excellent form, would like to further strengthen their hold on the match by defeating South Africa ‘A’ cheaply. Overall, the second day of the match was all India ‘A’s name and they have established themselves in the driver’s seat in this four-day encounter.
