Minnu Mani, Kate Peterson Take Five-fors Each As Australia ‘A’ Take A Slight Edge
But Maddy Darke: On a swinging day of red-ball cricket action in the unofficial four-day game, India ‘A’ captain, off-spinner Minnu Mani and Australia ‘A’ pacer Kate Peterson took five-wicket hauls each at the Kerrydale Oval on Friday.
But Maddy Darke’s unbeaten 54 not out has meant Australia ‘A’ are slightly ahead as they reached 164/7 in their second innings at stumps and are currently leading India ‘A’ by 192 runs. On a day in which 15 wickets fell, Kate’s 5-16 helped Australia ‘A’ take a slender 28-run lead after bowling out India ‘A’ for 184.
India ‘A’ started Friday at the overnight score of 100/2, but suffered early blows as Kate dismissed overnight batters Tejal Hasabnis (32), and Shweta Sehrawat (40), before removing Sajana Sajeevan for a duck -- all three within eight deliveries.
