In the second unofficial Test match between India A and Australia A at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground, KL Rahuls return to the squad aimed to give him some much-needed match practice ahead of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. However, Rahuls performance fell short of expectations, as he was dismissed for just 4 runs from 4 balls by Australia A’s Scott Boland. India A’s batting lineup struggled under pressure, with early dismissals of Abhimanyu Easwaran and Sai Sudharsan, both sent back within the first few balls.
