BackOpener Yashasvi Jaiswal reassured the Indian team management with a fine century after his recent dip in form ahead of the Test series, as India A drew the second unofficial Test against New Zealand A in Christchurch on Tuesday (November 3, 2026).
On the final day, Jaiswal hammered the New Zealand A attack to score an unbeaten 155 off just 162 balls, with 15 boundaries and five sixes. Rising Vidarbha left-hander Yash Rathod also struck an unbeaten 100 as India A reached 282 for 2 in their second innings before the two captains decided to shake hands.
The match ended just after Rathod completed his century, with the left-hander sharing an unbroken 247-run stand with Jaiswal for the third wicket. Rathod hit nine boundaries in his 122-ball knock.
Brief Scores: India A 346 and 282/2 in 52.4 overs (Yashasvi Jaiswal 155 not out, Yash Rathod 100 not out); New Zealand A 424.
