1st Unofficial Test Live: India Eye More Wickets After Mukesh Stuns Lions

England Lions vs India A, 1st Unofficial Test Day 3, Live Updates: Mukesh Kumar struck three quick blows as India A staged a fine comeback despite Max Holden’s eighth first-class hundred, leaving England Lions five down on the penultimate day of the four-day Unofficial Test on Sunday. Overnight centurion Tom Haines (142, 208 balls) is still out there and Dan Mousley (2) is keeping him company at the break. The Lions are now trailing by 224 runs. Mukesh bowled with a lot more venom in this session, getting his lengths correct and he was rewarded with three wickets of Holden (101, 101b), Lions’ skipper James Rew (8) and Rehan Ahmed (3). Earlier on Day 2, forgotten India star Nair continued his terrific form in red-ball cricket, scoring his double ton. Karun scored 204 runs off 281 balls with the help of 26 fours and one six. Dhruv Jurel (94) and Sarfaraz Khan (92) also played crucial knocks but missed out on deserved centuries. (Live Scorecard)
