The United States of America have won the coin toss and elected to field first against India A.

As it is a just a warm-up match and not an official match, both teams can use their entire squad for both batting and bowling throughout the match. However, only 11 batters can bat in an innings which can be anyone from the 15-member squad and bowling teams can use as many options as they have in the entire squad.

India A innings has started in Navi Mumbai and both openers - Priyansh Arya and N Jagadeeshan have provided a decent start to their team on the bowling of Saurabh Netravalkar.

IND A 6/0 (1)

Priyansh Arya's blazing 28 off 13 balls was shortened by Jessy Singh by getting him caught at the deep square leg boundary. Tilak Varma joins Jagadeeshan at No.3, who's batting comfortably on 23 not out.

IND A 53/1 (5)

India A are all over USA bowlers in Navi Mumbai. N Jagadeesan (57*) have taken apart the bowling, who is being well complemented by Tilak Varma (28*). Both of them have forged a quick-fire stand of 71-runs for the 2nd wicket.

IND A 114/1 (10)

Tilak Varma falls for a well-made 38 off 24 to Shubham Ranjane, but that brings captain Ayush Badoni to the crease, who gets into the act soon. Meanwhile, Narayan Jagadeesan (99 not out) is on a rampage, getting to within one run of a superb hundred. The Tamil Nadu wicketkeeper making quite a statement.

IND A 170/2 (15)

Jagadeesan smashes a 49-ball hundred before departing for 104 runs off 55 balls. Badoni, meanwhile, stays unbeaten on 60 off 26 balls as India A finish with a mammoth 238-run total. This would take some chasing from the United States. As for the hosts, most boxes have been ticked in the batting section, including Tilak Varma's fitness.

Khaleel Ahmed and Mayank Yadav, who is making a comeback from injury, take the new ball for India. Andries Gous (20 not out off 10) is off to a flier for USA and alongside him is Monank Patel (2 not out off 2).

USA 24/0 (2)

Ravi Bishnoi castles USA skipper Monank Patel for 10 with a trademark delivery that skids through and into the right-hander. Khaleel Ahmed then gets rid of Saiteja Mukkamalla for a three-ball duck, Tilak Varma taking a fine running catch to once again show off his return to fitness. Andries Gous, meanwhile, continues to battle on for the United States.

USA 59/2 (8)

Tilak Varma now gets a wicket too! The southpaw is leaving no stone unturned to show he is ready to play the tournament proper, as he has dangerman Andries Gous caught by Naman Dhir. The asking run rate is now 20, and the game is beyond USA's reach. It's all about getting sufficient match practice now for both sets of players.

USA 139/4 (15)

The wickets keep tumbling as India A bowl USA out for 200 runs in 19.4 overs. Ravi Bishnoi finishes with three wickets, and though the hosts register a 38-run win, the United States can be happy with the fight they put up to get to a creditable response.

While India A will next take the field against Namibia in Bengaluru on February 6 in the last warm-up fixture before the tournament, India's main squad plays its solitary tune-up match against South Africa in Navi Mumbai on February 4. We will return with live updates from that game. Until then, goodbye!
