India TodayIndia rode on superb knocks from KL Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja to dominate County Select XI on Day 1 of their warm-up game at the Riverside ground at Chester-le-Street in Durham on Tuesday. Rahul, who is playing this game in place of Rishabh Pant, made a strong case for his inclusion in India's final XI for the upcoming first Test against England by hitting a potentially match-saving hundred before being called back by the team management. Rahul hit his 15th First-Class hundred while Jadeja scored a fifty to help India reach 306 for 9 before the close of play. India's Avesh Khan, who is playing this game for County XI due to some of their players being unavailable, went wicketless in 9.5 overs before being taken off the field with a left thumb injury.
