Visakhapatnam: Discarded opener Shikhar Dhawan roared back to form with a sublime 128 as India B beat India A by 23 runs in the opening match of the Deodhar Trophy cricket tournament on Saturday.
Dhawan helped India B post 327 for eight in 50 overs. The others who contributed were captain Parthiv Patel (50) and Ishank Jaggi (53).
India B put up an all-around effort with the ball to bundle out India A for 304 in 48.2 overs as Ambati Rayudu’s 92 went in vain. Pacer Dhawal Kulkarni and spinner Akshay Karnewar stood out for India B, taking three wickets each.
