India A Lose Series to Australia A Despite Rajat Patidar's Consecutive Half-Centuries
India A lost the second one-day match against Australia A by 69 runs, with Australia A securing a 2-0 series lead. Rajat Patidar scored consecutive half-centuries (67 and 53) in both matches, showing resilience amid his team's batting struggles. While Patidar's efforts stood out, other India A batters, including captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, had limited success. Patidar's performances have strengthened his case for selection in India's upcoming ODI squad for the New Zealand series.
