Musa bhai and PK bowling in mid 120s with some even being bowled at 115-116ks but very accurate bowling so far. And as expected, the pitch does not even have a tinge of green on it. Dhawan continuing from where he left, two gorgeous drives on the up for 4.

India A have won the toss and elected to bat first

[Old guy]

For all the talk of improving pitches for domestic cricket, the two pitches for Irani Trophy and now this on have both been terribly disappointing. Nothing in it for the bowlers.

[saneindian]

141 kmph from Umesh and Uthappa glided it for 4. No pace off the pitch.

Ishant used a lot of cutters and slower deliveries yesterday.

All the 5 selectors watching the match. Not sure if any judgement can be made about the batting abilities of players based on their performances here

Ishant is lacking the pace since his come back.

Brilliant bowling from Harmeet. Tosses the ball up, beats Rahane in the flight and takes his wicket.

that was his biggest problem in odis before he was dropped :wall: anyway if he can mix them well its not such a bad idea on this track

Cannot expect him to go flat out right away after an injury break. Also, am sure he doesn't mind bowling at lesser speeds if he continues to pick up wickets. Needs a bagful of wickets in these domestic matches to get his wicket taking form back.

ishant with his height wil be lethal even at 135 if he gets his movement back i dont care abt 150k straight balls cs as we saw in australia good players just dont care about pace

[saneindian]

Pathetic behavior from PK. Bowls 2 bouncers in an over, the 2nd one gets called a wide for being way high and rightly so. PK starts doing MC BC. Shameful.
