India and came to the commanding start in the second unofficial test against England Lions in Northampton, riding in a folded and elegant century from the senior India Batter Kl Rahul. Rahul’s shifts that returned to cricket with a red ball after an accident were not only essential for India and the match only for India A, but also a promising sign for the Senior Indian party before their high -ranking test series of five matches against England at the end of this month.
Rahul was cautious in the early stages of his knocking and showing the discipline when choosing a shot and leaving the ball to him. He launched under the overcast sky and against the fresh attack of England Lions, took the time-he pulled his half-century in 102 balls. However, as soon as he settled, Rahul made the switch in his approach and went into the attack mode, but with a remarkable check. It grows in the trust and playing of a series of sharp shots, including its disks with a trademark envelope, – He raised his century in 151 of the balls.
