Manish Pandey blasts 77 for India A

Middle-order batsman Pandey cracked 13 boundaries and one six to take the visitors close to the 200-mark but once he was dismissed by Chadd Sayers, the rest of the batsmen could only score 42 runs. At the draw of stumps, Cameron Bancroft (10) and Joe Burns (12) were at the crease with Australia A at 24 for no loss at the Allan Border Field.

Openers -- Akhil Herwadkar (34) and Faiz Fazal (48) scored 74 runs in 32.1 overs before the former was caught by Peter Handscomb off Daniel Worrall. Five overs later, other opener Fazal was cleaned up by David Moody. After Shreyas Iyer (19) was caught and bowled by Swepson, Pandey and Karun Nair (15) added 70 runs and once the former was dismissed, Nair too could not stay longer and was sent packing by Swepson with Handscomb taking the catch. Swepson and Moody then picked up two wickets each to wrap up the Indian innings.
