Abhimanyu Easwaran and Sai Sudharsan, part of the senior Test squad, played out decent hits, scoring 39 and 38 respectively. Captain Shubman Gill<\/a> and KL Rahul<\/a> anchored India\u2019s batting the previous day, striking smooth half-centuries in the lead-up to the first Test that will be played at Headingley from June 20.<\/p>\n
Having featured in the second unofficial Test for India A, Rahul cracked his 19th First-Class century against the Lions in Northampton and backed it up with a half-century in the second innings. The Karnataka batter, who has not struck a century at home since 2016, has maintained a solid record in England since his first Test appearance in 2018, scoring four centuries in 21 First-Class innings in the country.<\/p>\n
