Having helped Australia A get a sizable lead in the second unofficial ‘Test’ against India A with his strokeful 150 on Day 2, Australia A opener Cameron Bancroft on Thursday said that they learnt a thing or two from the Indian batting failure in the first innings.
The Cheteshwar Pujara-led side crashed to 135 on the opening day of the four-day game and the visitors responded with a strong 329 for nine, gaining a 194-run lead so far.
“Having watched them go through as a team, I definitely thought we have to come out positive and stick to wicket to score runs. What we generally want to do is to be confident and put pressure on the opposition.
We learnt that after watching India bat in the first innings,” Bancroft said.
