Great Barrier Reef Arena: Half-centuries by Raghvi Bist and Tejal Hasabnis went in vain as opener Katie Mack stepped up to hit a fine 129 and steer Australia ‘A’ to a four-wicket victory in the first one-dayer against India ‘A’ at the Great Barrier Reef Arena here on Wednesday.
India ‘A’ were reduced to 56/3 in 12.3 overs, before Tejal’s 53 off 67 balls, laced with seven fours, and Raghvi’s 82 off 102 deliveries, studded with six boundaries, helped the visitors post 249/9. For Australia ‘A’, Maitlan Brown took 4-23, while Nicola Hancock and Grace Parsons picked two scalps each.
In reply, Katie hit 129 off 126 deliveries, including getting her century off 106 balls, to set up the win for Australia ‘A’. She shared partnerships of 50 with Maddy Darke and 65 with Charli Knott, before stitching a match-winning stand of 135 runs with captain Tahlia McGrath, who made 56 off 61 balls.
