IND A vs AFG A LIVE Score Tri-nation: No shortage of action in Dambulla
India A vs Afghanistan A LIVE Score Tri-Nation: A huge moment in the game as Anukul Roy and Vipraj Nigam deliver for India A.

A superb catch to send back the dangerous Khalid Taniwal, followed by the wicket of the captain Imran Mir. Yash Thakur began with an expensive opening over but bounced back strongly with the big wicket of the dangerous Hassan Eisakhil. The Afghanistan openers did not hold back, though. They took the attack to India A right from the outset, with captain Imran Mir and Eisakhil showing plenty of intent early in the chase….Read More
Indian innings summary
India A posted 319/9 in their 50 overs, thanks largely to a crucial partnership between Tilak Varma and Kumar Kushagra. The duo added 104 runs for the fourth wicket, with Tilak registering his third half-century of the series and Kushagra contributing a composed 58 off 67 balls. Priyansh Arya also slammed a fifty of his own, and together, all three combined to put India A in a commanding position and briefly raised hopes of a total well beyond 350. However, Afghanistan fought back impressively in the closing stages. Kushagra’s dismissal triggered a collapse, while Suryansh Shedge fell attempting to accelerate. The biggest setback came when Tilak departed in the final overs, leaving India A without their set batter at the death. Outside the action, Sanjay Manjrekar also stirred debate by saying Vaibhav Sooryavanshi should have been dropped.

IND A vs AFG A LIVE Score, Tri-Nation: More of the same!
IND A vs AFG A LIVE Score, Tri-Nation: Afghanistan A’s dogged partnership seems to have dented India A’s confidence. Tilak Varma has taken an extremely defensive approach.

Jun 17, 2026 1:23:24 PM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Afghanistan pull things back!
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: A good fightback from Afghanistan A.

Suddenly, a total that looked destined to cross 350 now appears more likely to finish around the 310-mark. India A are 259/5 with seven overs remaining.

IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: OUT! Shedge holes out in the deep
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: A consistent performer for India A, Suryansh Shedge departs cheaply. He manages just 7 off 8 balls before holing out to deep midwicket while attempting to clear the ropes.

Jun 17, 2026 1:05:08 PM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: A third FIFTY for Tilak
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: A run-out chance goes begging, and Tilak Varma takes full advantage, scampering through for a quick single to bring up his half-century. It is his third fifty of the series. The skipper is perfectly placed for a final flourish with 10 overs still to come.
Jun 17, 2026 1:00:33 PM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Tilak takes charge
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: No more looking around for the Indian captain. After Kumar Kushagra’s dismissal, Tilak Varma responds with a crunching drive to move to 47.

IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Imran Mir hopes for a miracle!
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: With very little going Afghanistan A’s way, captain Imran Mir has brought himself into the attack in the hope of breaking this partnership. He is only a part-time bowler, but cricket has a habit of producing wickets from the most unlikely sources. Mir will be hoping he can provide that breakthrough, even though Tilak Varma and Kumar Kushagra remain resolute in their approach.
Jun 17, 2026 12:32:08 PM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Can India get to 350 from here?
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Thankfully, with no threat of rain or bad light, India A have every opportunity to exact revenge for their earlier defeat to Afghanistan A. Tilak Varma and Kumar Kushagra are well set, their partnership growing stronger with every over. Afghanistan A seem to have taken their foot off the pedal, and with India A scoring at well over six an over, they are firmly on course for a total close to 350, if not more.
Jun 17, 2026 12:21:35 PM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Kushagra survives a run-out chance!
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: A direct hit from the deep, and the Afghanistan A players are delirious. The decision eventually comes back as NOT OUT, but the batter can count himself extremely lucky. The frame that convinced the third umpire showed the bails coming off with the bat just inside the crease. But honestly, the one frame that wasn’t captured could have been the dealbreaker.
Jun 17, 2026 12:15:43 PM IST
IND A vs AFG A LIVE Score: This partnership is now flourishing
IND A vs AFG A LIVE Score: These two came together shortly after India A lost Priyansh Arya and Ruturaj Gaikwad, but the way Tilak Varma and Kumar Kushagra have responded deserves the highest praise. Their fifty partnership is up, and India A look completely untroubled by this Afghanistan A attack. They are making it look easy. Approaching 200.

IND A vs AFG A LIVE Score: Strong words from Manjrekar for Sooryavanshi
Sanjay Manjrekar is not a fan of what happened between Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and the Sri Lankan players the other day. He believes the 15-year-old should have been dropped as punishment.
Jun 17, 2026 11:58:11 AM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: FOUR! The odd boundary continues to come
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: India A continue to tick along nicely, with Tilak Varma bringing up his third boundary with a fine tickle off the pads. The scoring rate is still hovering around seven an over, with Afghanistan A just beginning to let it loose.
Jun 17, 2026 11:50:53 AM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: FOUR! Kumar grows in confidence
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Finally, an authoritative stroke for a boundary from Kumar Kushagra as he pulls with total disdain. First real stroke of confidence from the Indian batter as India A take 8 off that over.

Jun 17, 2026 11:46:21 AM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: DROPPED again
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Woeful. That is the only word to describe Afghanistan A’s shoddy display in the field today. Zahir Khan gets a taste of his own medicine as Kumar Kushagra is put down off his bowling. And to make matters worse, the very next delivery flies away for five wides.
What is happening, Afghanistan A?
India A 151/3 after 22 overs.
Jun 17, 2026 11:40:41 AM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Things slow down for India a tad!
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: As expected, the two new batters, Tilak Varma and Kumar Kushagra, are doing the sensible thing by taking their time before looking to unleash the big shots. Both are still in single figures. Only 20 overs have been bowled, with 30 more to go. India A are taking it one step at a time. Oh, and just as we were about to finish this post, Kumar Kushagra gets a thick outside edge that races away for four.
Jun 17, 2026 11:33:00 AM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Misfield! Ridiculous
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Terrible from Afghanistan A. And it’s Zahir Khan again. Having earlier dropped Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, he now makes a complete mess in the field to gift Tilak Varma a boundary. A regulation stop turns into four as Zahir bends down to collect the ball but lets it slip through.
India 133/3 in 19 overs
Jun 17, 2026 11:26:06 AM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: OUT! Gaikwad this time
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Gone! Just a tickle and the keeper does the rest. India A are three down quickly, and it’s the big wicket, Gaikwad, to go down.
Jun 17, 2026 11:23:52 AM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: CRUNCHED for FOUR!
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Cruel! The previous delivery deserved a boundary but yielded just a single. Gaikwad is having none of it. Two balls later, he thumps one straight back down the ground for four. He is batting on a different surface altogether, timing everything to perfection.
Jun 17, 2026 11:21:31 AM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Time to show composure!
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: India A’s scoring rate has dipped from over 9.5 an over to 7.7 following the dismissals of the destructive opening pair, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi and Priyansh Arya. Even so, it remains a strong scoring rate and provides the perfect platform for Ruturaj Gaikwad and captain Tilak Varma to rebuild the innings, brick by brick.
Remember, this is a do-or-die clash for India A if they are to qualify for the final.
Jun 17, 2026 11:10:23 AM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: OUT! Arya caught
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: That’s the wicket Afghanistan A desperately needed! Priyansh Arya slaps it hard but can only find the fielder at point. The on-field umpires send it upstairs, but this one is straightforward. “I am satisfied,” says the third umpire, and Arya’s impressive knock ends on 58 from 42 balls. India A are 115/2 after 14.5 overs as the players head off for drinks.
Jun 17, 2026 11:04:44 AM IST
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: SHOT! Pure class!
IND A vs AFG LIVE Score: Ruturaj Gaikwad is making batting look ridiculously easy. The right-hander is unfurling one gorgeous stroke after another, and the latest is a picture-perfect cover drive that races away for four. Pure class.
India A 113/1 in 14 overs.
