Mumbai, December 1:<\/strong> Fast-bowling all-rounder Harshit Rana picked 4-44 as India bowled out Australian Prime Minister’s XI for 240 in 43.2 overs in the pink-ball warm-up game at the Manuka Oval on Sunday. After day one of their two-day pink-ball tour match was washed out due to rain, India elected to bowl first in a curtailed 50-overs-a-side contest. Young batter Sam Konstas shined by hitting a 90-ball century, which puts more pressure on Australia\u2019s out of form batter Marnus Labuschagne, as well as newbie opener Nathan McSweeney, who didn\u2019t do much on debut at Perth.

But Rana taking four wickets in six balls ensured India kept PM\u2019s XI to 10 runs below 250. Opener Matthew Renshaw fell early after nicking off to second slip off Mohammed Siraj for just five, and was followed by Jayden Goodwin giving an edge behind to keeper off Akash Deep, as the PM XI\u2019s scoreboard read 22\/2 after 5.5 overs. <\/p>\n

Some more rain meant the game was reduced to 46-over a side affair. But Konstas looked solid in his copybook style stroke-play, especially in hitting through the V and taking the attack to Indian bowlers, including hitting an incredible reverse ramp off Akash Deep going for a boundary.

In all, he hit 107 off 97 balls, laced with 14 fours and a six coming at a strike-rate of 110.3, while putting a stand of 109 with Jack Clayton (40). But Rana got India back in the match by taking out Clayton, Ollie Davies, Jack Edwards and Sam Harper to leave the PM\u2019s XI at 138\/7. <\/p>\n

Konstas found an able partner in Hanno Jacobs, as the duo stitched an eighth-wicket partnership of 67. After getting his century, Konstas was eventually caught in the deep off Akash Deep\u2019s bowling, while Jacobs was dismissed for 61 by Washington Sundar to end the PM\u2019s XI innings. <\/p>\n

Brief Scores:<\/strong> Prime Minister\u2019s XI 240 in 43.2 overs (Sam Konstas 107, Hanno Jacobs 61; Harshit Rana 4-44) against India<\/p>\n
