KL Rahul on Friday scored a century for India A on the first day of the second unofficial Test match against England Lions at the County Ground in Northampton.
He got to the mark in 151 deliveries with 13 fours and a six. This was Rahul’s 19th First-Class ton, and his first for India A.
The Karnataka batter was added to the A squad for the second unofficial Test after missing the first game due to his Indian Premier League commitment with Delhi Capitals.
Rahul opened the innings with Yashasvi Jaiswal, a major development ahead of the five-match series against England as India tries to figure out its batting order after the retirements of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli.
The 33-year-old had also stepped up into the opening spot during the Border-Gavaskar Trophy against Australia when Rohit was unavailable.
