Twin Tons from Prithvi Shaw, Hanuma Vihari Fire India A to Huge Win Over Windies A

Windies A journey in the one-day tri-series ended without a win, as India A thrashed them by 203 runs in the final group match at Wantage Road.

Batting first, India A rode on centuries on Prithvi Shaw and Hanuma Vihari to pile up 354 for six before the Windies A folded for 151.

India A were off to a poor start, losing two wickets in three balls during the fourth over from Chemar Holder. However, from there on, it was one-way traffic. Shaw was initially the aggressor and brought up his century from 87 balls before becoming Holder’s third wicket.

After that, it was Vihari’s turn to take charge, and he did not disappoint. The right-hander brought up his hundred off 104 deliveries before cutting loose in the death overs. He scored the last 47 runs of his off just 24 balls before being run out off the final delivery of the innings.

Shaw and Vihari added 160 runs for the third wicket to set the platform for a big total. The partnership broke when Shaw departed after scoring 102 off 90 balls. After Shaw’s dismissal, Vihari added half-century stands with Vijay Shankar and Ishan Kishan, as 105 runs came from the last ten overs. Vihari scored 147 with the help of 13 fours and five sixes.

In reply, the Windies A lost Jermaine Blackwood first ball and never recovered from the early setback. They were eventually all out for just 151.

Left-arm spinner Axar Patel was the most successful bowler for India A, returning figures of 4/34. Chandrapaul Hemraj top-scored for the Windies A with 43 off 46 balls.

India A will now take on hosts England A in the final at the Kennington Oval in London on Monday.

Brief scores:

India, A 354 for six (Vihari 147, Shaw 102, Holder 3-70), beat the Windies A 151 (Patel 4-34) by 203 runs
