India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Can Sudharsan get his century?
Sai Sudharsan is batting on 85. He needs 15 more to get to his maiden century for India A but he has to do it quickly as India A need only 20 runs and the way captain Yash Dhull has started, it is hard to keep him away from the boundary charts.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Dhull shows class
SIX! FOUR! Straight, flat and big. Yash Dhull is in a hurry to finish this match here. The first one was a flat six and the second one was a lofted shot over mid-off off Mehran.
India A 176/2 in 32.4 overs.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Jose departs
OUT! Mohammad Haris makes no mistake this around. Jose danced down the track and had a wild swing. Mehran Mumtaz just shortened his length and got enough turn to beat the bat. Haris, behind the stumps, whips the bails to end the 99-run partnership.
India A 157/2 after 30.2 overs while chasing 206
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Sai Sudharsan survives
It's a no-ball. Sudharsan will carry on. Mubasir had nothing behind the line there. It was a length delivery around off stump and Sudharsan went to cut it but failed. Pakistan players went up in appeal and the umpire, after a lot of thought, raised his finger. Sudharsan did not look pleased at all. But thankfully for him, Mubasir had overstepped.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Nikin Jose gets to 50
Nikin Jose gets to his half-century off 58 balls. What a turnaround this has been from the right-hander. He could have been out twice in one over very early on in his innings but Pakistan keeper Mohammad Haris failed to grab the chances and since then Jose has looked a different player.
India A 142/1 in 27.2 overs
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Sai Sudharsan at his best
FOUR! Flicked off his pads and it races away to the boundary. It was a quick delivery from Mohammad Wasim, perhaps hoping to caught Sudharsan caught off guard after unsettling him with a bouncer in the previous delivery but the left-hander was up for it.
India 137/1 after 26.4 overs
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Fifty for Sudharsan
SIX! That's brilliant use of the feet from Sai Sudharsan and this also brings up his half-century and well-deserved one.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Jose turns it around
Nikin Jose is growing in confidence. After a dodgy start, he has hit three sparkling boundaries in the last couple of overs. Brilliant stuff by the young right-hander. India A are marching towards 100.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Jose gets a four
FOUR! That'll help, that will certainly help Nikin Jose breathe easy. Yes, it was short and wide, asking to be hit from Mubasi but considering the torrid time Jose has had in the middle it was going to be easy. He cut it and managed to beat the deep fielder to collect his first boundary of the match.
India A 71/1 in 14 overs
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Chances missed
Pakistan captain and wicketkeeper Mohammad Haris has missed two chances off back-to-back deliveries. Nikin Jose is the lucky man. The first one was a drop catch, albeit a difficult one but Haris would be mighty disappointed with the stumping chance missed in the next delivery.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Mubasir strikes!
OUT! Abhishek Sharma drags one back onto his stumps for 20. Mubasir Khan gets the breakthrough. Just as we were drooling about this opening partnership, Pakistan A have struck. Sharma would be mighty disappointed with that shot. He went for the slog sweep and dragged it back onto his stumps.
India A 58/1 after 11.1 overs
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: 50 for India A
FOUR! And that's the fifty for India A. Mubasir overcompensated by bowling it full. Sudharsan, perhaps knowing it is the last ball of the powerplay, gets a good stride out and just lifts it over mid-off for another boundary.
India A 52/0 after 10 overs while chasing 206
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Sudharsan breaks the shackles
FOUR! Just a tad short from Mubasir and Sudharsan was on to it in flash. The margin for error to him is very very small. He times it through the in-field and manages to hit a boundary.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Mubasir starts well
Pakistan A have just managed to stem the flow of boundaries. Off-spinner Mubasir Khan starts off with the most economical over of the inning so far. Only 1 from it. But India A would still consider this start a great one.
India A 42/0 after 8 overs while chasing 206.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Sudharsan on fire!
There's no respite for the Pakistan A bowlers. Mohammad Haris got off-spinner Qasim Akram into the attack as early as the fourth over but he too was met with the same treatment. Two boundaries in his first over as Sudharsan has raced to 19 off 14 balls.
India A 31/0 after 4 overs while chasing 206.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Flying start for India A
Three boundaries in the Shahnawaz Dahani. Abhishek Sharma and Sai Sudharsan have gotten India A off to a flying start. Some early thinking to do for Pakistan new-ball bowlers.
India A 20/0 after 2 overs while chasing 206.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Abhishek Sharma joins the party
FOUR! Wow, what a shot. If Sudharsan showed his class from the backfoot, Abhishek Sharma has got off the mark with a booming cover drive. In search of swing, Dahani pitched it up and wide but Sharma was up for it. That was right out of the middle of the bat.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Sudharsan is away
FOUR! That should settle all the nerves. A proper square cut from Sai Sudharsan. It was short and wide from Wasim and Sudharsan got on top of the bounce, rolled his wrists over it to make sure the ball was not hit in the air and found the gap. What a way to get off the mark.
FOUR! Another one. This time, there was no intention from Sudharsan to keep it down. Two boundaries to start with for the left-hander.
India A 8/0 after 1 overs.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: India's chase begins
Abhishek Sharma and Sai Sudharsan are out in the middle. They need to give a good start to India A if they want to chase down the 206-run target without much discomfort. It won't be easy though as they will be facing Mohammad Wasim and Shahnawaz Dahani, two fast bowlers who have played international cricket for Pakistan.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Hangargekar picks 5
Rajvardharn Hangerkar finishes with figures of 5 for 42. A terrific performance from the right-arm pacer. He got wickets with the new ball and then came back to finish off the tail. He was well-supported by left-arm spinner Manav Suthar who got three wickets in the middle and never allowed Pakistan A to get back into the contest.
Special mention for Pakistan all-rounder Qasim Akram. Without his 48-run knock, this Pakistan A total would have much lower.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup
Emerging Teams Asia Cup 2023: India A bowl out Pakistan A for 205 (Q Akram 48; R Hangargekar 5/42) in 48 overs at Colombo.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Qasim Akram falls
Qasim Akram falls two short of his half-century and it needed something special to end his innings. Harshit the man at short thirdman. He plucks one out of thin air. The ball was going over him but he leapt in the air, stretched his right hand out, the ball stuck, and he fell to the ground. Third wicket for Hangargekar but he really should thank Harshit Rana for his brilliance.
Let's take nothing away from Qasim's knock here. This innings has given Pakistan A something to fight.
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Jurel hurt!
India A wicketkeeper Dhruv Jurel is hurt! This was on a good length, and he had to adjust to chop it last moment. It dropped before the stumps, and rose to hit Jurel, the keeper, on his neck
India A vs Pakistan A Live Score, ACC Emerging Asia Cup: Sindhu breaks the stand
OUT! Just when it was looking that Pakistan A have managed to break away from the stranglehold of the Indian spinners, Nishant Sindhu gets the wicket of Mubasir Khan. It was a straighter delivery and it hurried the right-hander. Struck him in front and the umpire wasted no time in raising his finger.
Pakistan A 148/7 in 38 overs
