Duleep Trophy: Target Was To Stay In Front Of Wicket As Long As I Could, Says Easwaran
Rural Development Trust Stadium: Abhimanyu Easwaran remarked "an important match" after his heroic 157 not out in the Duleep Trophy 2024 clash between India B and India C, which made him the eighth Indian batter to carry the bat through the innings.
Easwaran’s knock was the backbone of India B’s chase of a daunting 525-run target set by India C. Despite challenging conditions and a strong bowling display led by India C’s Anshul Kamboj, Easwaran held firm, guiding his team through tough phases with a well-paced century.
Reflecting on the match, Easwaran acknowledged the enormity of the task. "This was quite an important match for me and my team. With such a large target of 525 to chase, we knew the depth in our batting gave us a chance. The plan was simple – if two or three of us could form solid partnerships and each score a hundred, we were confident we could reach the target."
