\n\nThe three-match unofficial Test series between India A and New Zealand A ended on a positive note for the visitors despite rain washing out the majority of the match. Prasidh Krishna, who made his return from an injury, proved his fitness. The right-arm pacer scalped two wickets in the five overs he bowled. Prasidh removed NZ A's openers before the play was interrupted due to rain again. Jasprit Bumrah bowled six overs. Mukesh Choudhar could only bowl two overs while Mukesh Kumar bowled six balls. Prasidh's brief spell was enough for him to prove his match fitness.
\n\nYashasvi Jaiswal shone in the fixture and he slammed a century. The left-handed batter hit 102 off 138 balls. He added 175 runs for the first wicket with Sai Sudharsan (88), who once again missed out on a century. Sudharsan was dismissed for 91 in the first unofficial Test.
\n\nJaiswal warmed up well for the Test series and he scored 279 runs in five innings. Batting at an average of 69.75, Jaiswal hit two centuries.
