1st Unofficial Test: Tom Haines Ton Leads England Lions Reply After Karun Nairs Double Century Powers India A To 557
Sussex opener Tom Haines led a spirited England Lions response with a composed century after Karun Nair's masterful double hundred lifted India A to a massive 557 on the second day of the four-day unofficial Test at Canterbury, England on Saturday. At stumps, the Lions reached 237/2 in 52 overs, with the compact left-hander Haines anchoring the innings with an unbeaten 103 (147 balls). They still trail India A by 320 runs. He reached his 15th first-class century late in the day, bringing it up in 138 balls with 11 boundaries. After the early loss of Ben McKinney (16), who was cleaned up by seamer Anshul Kamboj in the sixth over, Haines, one of the most consistent and technically sound opening batsmen in English domestic cricket, took charge of the innings. Kamboj was impressive in his opening spell, swinging the ball both ways and maintaining good control. Haines was joined by fellow left-hander Emilio Gay, and the pair steadied the innings with a solid 109-run partnership that spanned the entire second session. Gay, who looked fluent during his stay, narrowly missed a half-century, falling for 46 after facing 90 balls and striking eight fours. He was dismissed by left-arm spinner Harsh Dubey, who broke the threatening stand just as India A were beginning to feel the pressure. Max Holden then joined Haines and played with positive intent, scoring a brisk 64 off just 61 deliveries, peppered with eight fours and a six. The duo stitched together 106-run partnership and ensured the Lions finished the day strongly. India A skipper Abhimanyu Easwaran used as many as six bowlers in an attempt to break the Lions' momentum, but neither Haines nor Holden gave any chances, showing composure and attacking instinct in equal measure. Earlier in the day, Karun, returning to the Indian Test setup after eight years, displayed his class with a sublime 204 off 281 balls, including 26 boundaries and a six after India A resumed at the overnight score of 409/3. Karun, who resumed from overnight 186, brought up his 200 off 272 balls with a four over covers off pacer Eddie Jack. But India lost two quick wickets of overnight batter Dhruv Jurel (94) and Nitish Kumar Reddy (7). Karun and Jurel added 195 runs for the fourth wicket before the latter's dismissal. Karun too could not continue for long after reaching his double hundred, edging an in-coming delivery from pacer Zaman Akhter to stumper James Rew. Once Karun was dismissed, the Lions pacers went through the rest of the India A line-up with regular blows.

South Africa To Play Zimbabwe As Warm-Up For WTC Final Against Australia
South Africa will play against with Zimbabwe in a four-day warm-up match from June 3 at the Arundel Castle Cricket Ground in Sussex, England, as per the ICC official website. This will serve as key preparation for the Proteas ahead of their all-important World Test Championship Final at the Oval against Australia starting June 11. South Africa last featured in the longest format in a 2-0 home series win over Pakistan in January 2025, and this warm-up against their neighbours will provide them with a chance to acclimatise to red-ball cricket ahead of the Ultimate Test. Zimbabwe, meanwhile, are coming off in a one-off Test against England at Trent Bridge, their first Test on English soil in two decades, a landmark moment in their cricketing journey. Despite England winning the contest by an innings and 45 runs, Zimbabwe had plenty of moments to remember from the game, especially Brian Bennett's fighting ton in the first innings. Zimbabwe will be without the services of Sikandar Raza, Blessing Muzarabani and Richard Ngarava, but are otherwise expected to field a strong outfit, with the likes of Sean Williams, Bennett, Victor Nyauchi, Clive Madande, and Craig Ervine in the mix. South Africa Squad for the WTC 2025 Final: Tony de Zorzi, Ryan Rickelton, Aiden Markram, Temba Bavuma (c), David Bedingham, Tristan Stubbs, Kyle Verreynne, Wiaan Mulder, Marco Jansen, Corbin Bosch, Kagiso Rabada, Lungi Ngidi, Dane Paterson, Keshav Maharaj, Senuran Muthusamy. Zimbabwe Squad: Craig Ervine (c), Brian Bennett, Tanaka Chivanga, Ben Curran, Alex Falao, Clive Madande, Wessly Madhevere, Tanunurwa Makoni, Wellington Masakadza, Vincent Masekesa, Newman Nyamhuri, Victor Nyauchi, Tafadzwa Tsiga, Nicholas Welch, Sean Williams.
