Sai Sudharsan’s stocks in the Indian cricket circuit continued to grow with the latest knock.
After opting to bat first, Pakistan managed to post 205 in 48 overs as Qasim did the repair- work after reeling at 95/6 at one point. In return, India A achieved the target in 36.4 overs for the loss of two wickets on the back of an unbeaten 104 from opening batter Sai Sudharsan. Sudharsan’s innings included 10 fours and three sixes which came off 110 balls. Nikin Jose was the other significant contributor with the bat, scoring a 64-ball 53, which included seven boundaries.

Sai Sudharsan managed to deal with Shahnawaz Dahani really well, loved his composure in the India Premier League and Tamil Nadu Premier League too. He has a very bright future and could be drafted into the senior team soon 👏#EmergingAsiaCup2023 pic.twitter.com/UmM2OlhvNa
