Chasing 287, India B batsmen tumbled early on, losing the skipper and the dasher Agarawal and they never looked like chasing from there on. Yadav and Binny hung in there a bit but the total was too big for them and quality bowling from the India A bowlers wrecked them down. All the quickies chipped in with wickets and Nadeem bagged three. Fazal has been adjudged Man of the match for his scintillating innings. That's it from here, take care, cheers.

Nadeem to Binny, OUT, and the last beacon of hope for India B dances down the track and continues out of the ground. Saw him coming, he drops it short on off, the ball spun past his bat and the keeper does rest.
