At stumps, India ‘D’ were 206-8 in their second innings with Axar Patel (11 off 37 balls) and Harshit Rana at the crease. Rana is yet to open his account, and will look to support the experienced Axar on the third day as India ‘C’ look to extend their lead further.

Young left-arm spinner Manav Suthar was the star for India C, returning figures of 5-30 in 15 overs, including the wickets of Padikkal and Ricky Bhui, who was trapped in front for a vital 91-ball 44.
