Yashasvi Jaiswal scores century for India A in 2nd unofficial Test against New Zealand A
Jaiswal had been short of runs in the longest format of the game. He registered scores of 17 and 5 in the first unofficial Test and also fell cheaply in the first innings of the ongoing contest in Christchurch.
Yashasvi Jaiswal recorded a century for India A on day four of the second unofficial Test against New Zealand A at the Hagley Oval in Christchurch on Tuesday.
The opener completed his 18th First-Class century to help the visitor overcome the first-innings deficit and push India A to a good score in the second innings.
Play started after a delay of 100 minutes on the final day of the match and India A was left reeling when Sai Sudharsan and Devdutt Padikkal both departed early.
Jaiswal scored quickly against the Kiwi bowlers, making use of his feet well to negate any movement. Runs came quickly in his partnership with Yash Rathod and the two quickly wiped off the deficit before putting the side on track for a big total.
