Rajat Patidar smoked a sensational century against England Lions in the ongoing 1st unofficial Test in Ahmedabad.It was indeed an innings of character for Patidar as none of his teammates could touch the 25-run mark.He batted with remarkable intent and ended up scoring 151 off 158 balls, a knock laced with 19 boundaries and five maximums.
Responding to England Lions's first innings total of 553/8d, India A suffered a shocking collapse.Five of India's top-seven batters were dismissed under 10 as India lost seven wickets inside 100 runs.Patidar, who batted at three, backed his attacking game and fought alone.
