Dravid pays the price for dropping Pant, 3 ducks in India A's 133 all out

Electing to bat first after winning the toss, India A lost openers Prithvi Shaw and Mayank Agarwal for 3 on board with departing without troubling the scorers.

After enjoying a great run in the limited overs leg, the India A side stumbled big time in their first date with red ball cricket in England by getting bowled out for 133 against West Indies A in the first unofficial warm-up match at Beckenham.

Electing to bat first after winning the toss, India A lost openers Prithvi Shaw and Mayank Agarwal for 3 on board with both departing without troubling the scorers.

No. 3 R Samarth too could not utilize this opportunity and got out for 2. It was the 5th wicket partnership of 60 run between Hanuma Vihari and Vijay Shankar that saved the blushes for India A. But after that partnership was broken, there was no resistance from the India A lower order as the last four wickets fell for only 29 runs.

Captain Karun Nair too failed miserably, scoring only 20 runs, coming in to bat at No. 4.

Chemar Holder and Sherman Lewis picked up 4 wickets apiece for West Indies A.

Surprisingly, India A decided against picking Rishabh Pant and instead gone in with the relatively inexperienced KS Bharat as the wicket-keeper batsman.
