Five India Test squad members scored ducks as India A collapsed to 113 against New Zealand A's seam attack on a grassy pitch.
India A were dismissed for 113 in 39.3 overs on the first day of the first unofficial Test against New Zealand A at Bert Sutcliffe Oval in Lincoln on Saturday. Five of their eight players from India's Test squad for the upcoming series against New Zealand failed to reach double figures.
KL Rahul, Sai Sudharsan, Washington Sundar and Akash Deep were all dismissed for ducks. Dhruv Jurel, captaining the side, scored one while Yashasvi Jaiswal made 17 and Devdutt Padikkal top-scored with 32. Simon Keene took five for 24.
