Bengaluru. India B's team faltered badly in the first match of Duleep Trophy which started on Thursday. All the batsmen selected in this team proved to be flops. The 5 batsmen of the middle order of the team could not even touch the double-digit mark and lost 7 wickets for just 94 runs. Young batsman Mushir Khan (105*) who came at number 3 was the only one standing at one end. But no one was ready to support him.
In the end, he got a good support from fast bowler Navdeep Saini, who came in at number 9, and remained unbeaten on 29 runs till the end of the day's play and both the batsmen did not let the team suffered a new setback for more than a session. At the time of stumps, India B returned with 202 runs for 7 wickets.
**HUNDRED FOR #MUSHEER KHAN…!!!**
What a remarkable knock from the 19-year-old! Against the odds and the Big Boys, India B were struggling at 94 for 7, but #MusheerKhan turned the game around with an unbelievable century. A debut to remember at Chinnaswamy!
