He then reluctantly walked off, on 17* off 22. Dhruv Jurel &#8211; India&#8217;s second wicketkeeper in Tests, arrived next and got to a half-century in the second session. Pant was keen on continuing to bat even after being hit but was taken off as a precaution. But he came back to bat later in the day and raced to a 48-ball fifty with a six off Kyle Simmonds, shortly after Jurel brought up his second ton of the game. The pair added 82 before Pant was dismissed attempting a big shot. India declared their innings soon after that, leaving South Africa A with a target of 417.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The third hit was off a ball that seamed back into him off length and left him in&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":272263,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[564],"tags":[4891,158255,64,63,740,79990,149271,85],"class_list":["post-272262","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cricket","tag-4891","tag-2nd-unofficial-test","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-cricket","tag-india-a","tag-south-africa-a-tour-of-india","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/272262","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=272262"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/272262\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/272263"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=272262"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=272262"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=272262"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
