Bangladesh A have posted a fighting total on board in the second of the three one-dayers against
India A.
India A won the first one-dayer by a margin of 96 runs and will be
eyeing a series win by wining the second one-dayer. Bangladesh A reached
the total of 252 for the loss of eight wickets in the allotted 50
overs, courtesy of cameos from the lower middle order after the India A
bowlers ran through the top order for Bangladesh A.
Nasir Hossain
was the highest scorer for them scoring a brilliant century. He was the
lone fighter for the visitors and would have ideally wished for more
support.
Live cricket updates: India A vs Bangladesh A, 2nd one-dayer
India won the toss and inserted Bangladesh A into bat and the
visitors looked in all sorts of trouble at 66 for 3. It was Rishi Dhawan
who stepped up for India A with the new ball and got rid of both the
internationals in the top order,
Soumya Sarkar and
Mominul Haque.
Anamul Haque then fell for a score of 34 to the spin of Karn Sharma.
Karn returned to dismiss Sabbir Rahman to reduce Bangladesh A to 82 for
5.
It was the stand between
Nasir Hossain
and Liton Das that steadied them. The 70-run stand got them some
respectability before Dhawan came back to dismiss Das just five short of
a well fought half-century. Nasir though went on his way to register
his fifty. Raina chipped in with the wicket of Arafat Sunny who was
giving good support to Nasir.

hand, will be hoping to seal the series after the impressive work from
the bowlers.
Brief scores:
Bangladesh A 252 for 8 in 50 overs (Nasir Hossain 102*; Rishi Dhawan 3 for 44, Karn Sharma 2 for 40) vs
