Hosts feel the heat as India U19s pile on the runs

459

It was a hot and humid day in Colombo, as the Sri Lanka U19s were put under pressure on day two with India ending the day on a mammoth 473/5 in reply to the hosts’ 244 all-out.

India U19 make bold reply after Sri Lankan batting collapse

The 1st unofficial Youth Test between the visiting India U19s and Sri Lanka…

The lowest score from an Indian batsmen was 25 which summed up Sri Lanka U19s day, while Atharva Taide and Ayush Badoni hit scintillating centuries.

India, resuming day two on 92/1, continued their dominance before left arm quick Kalana Perera accounted for the dismissal of Devdutt Padikkal for 25.

Opening batsman Taide was solid as ever as he rotated the strike brilliantly while putting the bad balls away, on his way to a well deserved century.

Pawan Shah(38) and Yash Rathod(34) looked well set before they threw their wickets away along with Taide who eventually departed for 113 off 160 balls inclusive of 13 fours.

India were suddenly 290/5 and Sri Lanka had hope of minimizing the first innings deficit, but that was as good as it got for the hosts as Nehan Wadhera and Ayush Badoni clobbered the Sri Lankan bowling to all parts of the NCC grounds.

Wadhera hit 3 sixes and 9 fours in his unbeaten 81* off 117 balls and he was surprisingly the more sedate of the two batsmen.

Badoni hit only two sixes but stoked 11 delightful boundaries on his way to an unbeaten 107* off just 115 balls.

The duo were excellent against the spinners, using their feet to good affect and using all kinds of sweeps to tackle them. They were hardly troubled by the Sri Lankan fast bowlers as they put on an unbroken 183 runs for the sixth wicket.

Kalana Perera bowled his heart out for the hosts on an unresponsive surface, picking up 2/98, while right arm off spinner Kalhara Senaratne managed two wickets conceding 114 runs.

India U19s will resume the penultimate(3rd) day of this match tomorrow already 229 runs ahead of Sri Lanka U19s 1st innings score.
