 "IND vs SA Rishabh Pant")
South Africa A ended Day 1 on 299 for nine, largely thanks to resilient fifties from Jordan Hermann (71), Zubayr Hamza (66), and Rubin Hermann (50). However, India A’s bowlers, led by off-spinner Tanush Kotian (4/83) and Manav Suthar (2/62), repeatedly struck at key moments, preventing the visitors from posting a bigger total.
On Day 2, India A will aim to capitalize on their momentum. The spinners, having found consistent turn and bounce on a responsive pitch, will look to wrap up the tail early and keep South Africa under pressure. The pacers—Gurnoor Brar, Anshul Kamboj, and Khaleel Ahmed, will be keen to exploit any movement in the morning session.
Batting will be crucial for India A, as the first-innings total will set the tone for the match. With Rishabh Pant back behind the stumps following his injury, the team can rely on sharp wicketkeeping and energy in the field. Expect India A to look for early breakthroughs while keeping their batters ready to counter any resistance from South Africa’s lower order.
