South Africa A 264 for 4 (Petersen 109, Amla 49, Dippenaar 49) drew with India A
Scorecard
India A have won the two-match Test series against South Africa A by a 1-0 margin after the second Test in Dharamsala was abandoned with no play possible on three consecutive days due to heavy rain.
Umpires SK Tarapore and GA Pratap Kumar called off the match at 10 am after the outfield was left waterlogged due to morning showers. Though this was a frustrating outing for both teams, South Africa will consider themselves hard done by, since they had ended the first day at 264 for 4.
Paras Mhambrey, the India A coach, was satisfied with the teams performance in the series. "We were looking forward to win the game and get the series 2-0, but can't help the elements," Mhambrey told PTI. "I am happy with the first match in which we clinched the victory in three days. Our spinners troubled their batsmen and our batsmen scored double centuries. So it was a satisfying series for us."
India had won the the first Test in New Delhi by an innings and 242 runs.
