Pacer Auqib Nabi bowled an incisive opening spell with the new ball but bad light prevented India ‘A’ from recording a sensational come-from-behind win over New Zealand ‘A’ in the first unofficial Test which concluded in a draw here on Tuesday.

Chasing a target of 313 after India finished their second innings at a mammoth 516, New Zealand ‘A’ batters found the swing and seam movement generated by Nabi (3-28 in 10 overs) too hot to handle. The Indian rocked the home side’s top-order with three quick wickets.
