    "editor1": "<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Chennai, July 23 - <\/strong>India &#39;A&#39; left-arm spinner Pragyan Ojha struck thrice in quick succession but Australia &#39;A&#39; recovered from the setbacks to reach 185\/4 at stumps on Day 2 of the first four-day cricket match at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium here on Thursday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The hosts managed to add only 90 runs before their first innings folded up 301 runs earlier in the day after resuming at their overnight score of 211\/6.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">For India, Vijay Shankar struck a much-needed unbeaten 51 and leg spinner Amit Mishra chipped in with a handy knock of 27 to help team cross the 300-run mark. For the visitors, Steve O&#39;Keefe (6\/82) was the pick of the bowlers as he singlehandedly demolished the home team&#39;s batting.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In reply, Australia A faced an early blow as their opener Cameron Bancroft (2) was removed by pacer Abhimanyu Mithun in the fourth over of the innings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">His partner Usman Khawaja (25) and No.3 batsman Travis Head (31) put up a 50-run partnership but three wickets in quick succession by Ojha left the visitors struggling at 75\/4 in 24 overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But an unbeaten 110-run fifth wicket stand between Peter Handscomb (75 not out) and Marcus Stoinis (42 not out) helped the visitors resurrect their innings and reach 185\/4 at the close of the day&#39;s play, much to India &#39;A&#39; frustrations.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Brief scores: India A 301 (Vijay Shankar 51 not out; Steve O&#39;Keefe 6-82) against Australia A 185\/4 (Peter Handscomb 75 n.o., Marcus Stoinis 42 not out; Pragyan Ojha 3-52).<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"line-height: 23.1111106872559px; text-align: justify;\">(IANS)<\/span><\/p>\r\n",
