New Delhi: India batter Dhruv Jurel scored consecutive centuries in the second unofficial Test between India A and South Africa A, and former India cricketer Ravichandran Ashwin was full of praise for the keeper-batter, stating that he has made a strong case for himself ahead of the senior men’s Test series against the senior Proteas side.

While India A were struggling in the first innings, Jurel played an anchor’s role, helping the side post 255/10 in 77.1 overs. No other batter managed to score over 25 runs, with skipper Rishabh Pant being the second-highest run scorer with 24 runs to his name after Jurel’s 132.
