NEW DELHI: Musheer Khan smashed 181 in the first innings for India B against India A in their Duleep Trophy clash at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
But Musheer fell for a duck in the second innings caught behind by Dhruv Jurel off Akash Deep.
Nevertheless, Musheer’s elder brother Sarfaraz Khan made amends by hitting five fours in an over off the same bowler who had dismissed his brother.
India ‘B’ restricted their ‘A’ mates to 231 and gained a sizable 90-run first innings lead and were 33/3 at Tea on Day 3 as the match was very nicely poised.
Akash Deep bowled the first over of the last session. Sarfaraz left the first delivery, just outside the off-stump alone.
The second delivery was back of a length ball and well wide of off, Sarfaraz rode the bounce, used Akash Deep’s pace and cut it wide of gully for a boundary.
Next ball, Sarfaraz leaned into the drive against a good length delivery that was well wide of off, and placed it into the gap past cover for another boundary.
Akash Deep then bowled an inswinger onto the pads and Sarfaraz elegantly flicked past square leg for a boundary.
Next ball, Sarfaraz leaned into an off-drive against a overpitched ball just outside off, presenting the full face of the bat and caressed it straight of mid-off.
Last ball of the over and Sarfaraz got on top of the bounce of a delivery that was short of length and well wide of off and cracked it square past point for the fifth boundary of the over.

Sarfaraz hit 7 fours and a six in his 46-run knock that came off 36 balls before falling to Avesh Khan.
