India vs India A, Day 2 Live Streaming: How To Watch Intra-Squad Match LIVE
India vs India A Live Streaming: The senior Indian cricket team commenced its four-day intra-squad warm-up fixture against India A on Friday, June 13, at Beckenham in Kent.
Designed as preparation for the upcoming IND vs ENG Test series, the match is being conducted in private, with no public or media access—a deliberate decision by head coach Gautam Gambhir to protect strategic plans from being revealed to opponents.
Although the fixture doesn’t carry official first-class recognition, it serves as a crucial tune-up. The format permits batters an opportunity to return for a second innings in case of an early dismissal, maximizing time at the crease.
With a total of 360 overs available over four days, the game is structured to simulate match conditions, allowing bowlers to build rhythm and regain red-ball form.
Positive signs ahead of Ind vs Eng Tests
The opening day of India’s intra-squad warm-up game saw standout performances from captain Shubman Gill, KL Rahul, and Shardul Thakur, offering positive signs ahead of the upcoming Test series.
Gill and Rahul looked in good rhythm, each scoring composed half-centuries to set the tone for the batters in English conditions. With the ball, Shardul Thakur made an immediate impression by picking up the first wicket of the match.
Returning to the squad after a lengthy absence, Thakur will be keen to cement his place in the playing XI for the first Test. His familiarity with English pitches, where he has already claimed 10 Test wickets, adds valuable depth to India's bowling arsenal.
