Manish Pandey blasts century as India 'A' clinch series against West Indies 'A'

Batting first on a rather flat surface, India lost opener Anmolpreet Singh for a duck before skipper Iyer and Shubman Gill steadied things for the visitors with a glorious 109-run stand. Gill struck his second fifty in as many matches but failed to convert yet again as he fell for 77. However, the Windies were then blown away by the Pandey show, as the Karnataka batsman scored a blistering 87-ball ton to help India 'A' post a competitive total of 295.

In reply, the hosts started the chase off on a good note, with John Campbell and Sunil Ambris stitching a 50-run partnership for the first wicket, before being removed by pacer Navdeep Saini. However, after initial resistance from the top-order, the Windies batsmen fell like a pack of cards, as left-arm spinner Pandya ran through the middle-order, ending up with figures of 5/25 off his seven overs. Hanuma Vihari also chipped in with the ball, as he claimed two wickets, including the prized one a dangerous-looking Keemo Paul.
