Rahane’s knock in vain

Brisbane: Opener Ajinkya Rahane’s classy 92 went in vain as India slumped to a four-wicket defeat against South Africa in their fourth match of the Emerging Players tournament at Albury Oval on Sunday.

Put in to bat, India made 271 for six, thanks mainly to Rahane’s 120-ball 92 (1x6, 5x4). Naman Ojha (48), captain S. Badrinath (44) and Abhishek Nayar (42) were the other notable contributors.

In reply, South Africa made 274 for six in 48.3 overs to win the match comfortably. Bhuvneshwar Kumar was the pick of Indian bowlers with figures of three for 39 while Pradeep Sangwan, Badrinath and Virat Kohli scalped one wicket each.

The scores:

India 271 for six in 50 overs (Ajinkya Rahane 92, Naman Ojha 48, S. Badrinath 44, Abhishek Nayar 42) lost to South Africa 274 for six in 48.3 overs (Stein van Zyl 60, Vaughn van Jaarsveld 50, Farhaan Behardien 50, Bhuvneshwar Kumar three for 39). — PTI
