South Africa A will look to build on their overnight 105-run lead when they resume batting on Day 3 of the first unofficial Test against India A on Saturday (November 1, 2025) at the BCCI Centre of Excellence Ground 1 in Bengaluru. Watch the IND-A vs RSA-A match live.
On Day 2, after bowling out RSA A for 309, India A were dismissed for 234, with captain Rishabh Pant falling for just 17. Teenager Ayush Mhatre (65, 76 balls) was the lone India A batter who displayed some resolve, while off-spinner Prenelan Subrayen returned figures of 5/61 for the Proteas.
Pant did an excellent job behind the wickets on his return to competitive cricket after three months but he failed to replicate it in front of the wicket.
In their second innings, the tourists were 30 for no loss, extending the 75-run first-innings lead to 105 runs. Jordan Hermann (12) and Lesego Senokwane (9) were batting at stumps.
