Ruturaj Gaikwad has batted vigorously in the three-match unofficial Test series between New Zealand A and Team India being held in Bangalore.
Rituraj Gaikwad scored a century in the first innings of the third match of this series. He had scored 105 runs as an individual score till the time of writing the news. Let us tell you here that this is his fourth century in first-class cricket.
It is worth noting that Ruturaj Gaikwad was being included in Team India continuously for some time, but in the T20 World Cup, the selectors of Team India did not give Ruturaj Gaikwad a chance. In such a situation, he has now caught everyone's attention by scoring a century on the very first day of this match.
Team India 'A' got off to a bad start
In fact, after winning the toss, India A, who came to the crease to bat first, had a bad start. The team's top-order batsman Priyank Panchal was dismissed cheaply. He scored just 5 runs off 54 balls. After him, the second opener Abhimanyu Eshweran also walked the pavilion on 38.
But at the other end, Rituraj Gaikwad remained stuck with his peg. Gaikwad completed his century with the help of 12 fours and two sixes.
Ruturaj Gaikwad hints at returning to form by scoring a century
Let us tell you that Rituraj Gaikwad, who was included in Team India's squad till some time ago, returned to the pavilion by scoring 5 and 21 runs in the last two matches of three matches against New Zealand A. But now he has given signs of returning to form by scoring a brilliant century during the third match.
It is worth noting that the last two unofficial matches played against New Zealand 'A' and India A (Team India 'A') ended in a draw. In such a situation, now that the Indian team is on the field in the third match, it will be trying to capture the series by winning this match. You know that a 3-match ODI series is also to be played between Team India A and New Zealand A.
