In an impressive display of skill, pacer Mukesh Kumar revitalized India A's fortunes against England Lions in their ongoing four-day Unofficial Test match. Kumar's three quick dismissals disrupted the visitors' innings on Sunday, despite Max Holden's brilliant eighth first-class century.
England Lions found themselves at 333 for five at lunch, trailing India A by 224 runs. Among the key highlights was Tom Haines, who remains unbeaten on 142, after forming a pivotal 181-run partnership with Holden for the third wicket.
Holden's dismissal at 101 came as Kumar delivered a series of precise balls, which also saw the back of Lions' skipper James Rew and Rehan Ahmed. The opportunistic bowling of Kumar turned the tide, granting India A a hopeful comeback on the penultimate day of the match.
