On Day 4 of the ongoing 1st Test of the Duleep Trophy between India A and India B at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, India A's wicket-keeper batter Dhruv Jurel met an unfortunate fate, departing for a golden duck in their second innings.
Replacing the departing Shubman Gill, Jurel's stay at the crease was short-lived, as Yash Dayal's pivotal over proved decisive for India B.

In the 14th over, Dayal delivered a pitched-up ball wide outside off, shaping away. Jurel leaned forward to drive but instead managed only an outside edge.
The ball flew to Yashasvi Jaiswal at gully, who executed a spectacular diving catch. This dismissal marked the right-handed batter's departure for a golden duck, leaving India A at 4 wickets down.
India A's Early Struggles Against India B's Pace Attack
Earlier in the match, India A was set a challenging target of 275 runs to win. India B struck early, with Mayank Agarwal being caught at slip off a superb delivery from Yash Dayal. The umpires needed to double-check the catch before confirming the dismissal.
Adding to the challenges for India A, Riyan Parag was dismissed by a peach of a delivery from Dayal. Navdeep Saini further intensified the pressure by dismissing India A's captain Shubman Gill again and this time on his birthday, who managed to score only 21 runs off 35 balls.
As of the latest update, India A require 157 runs to secure victory, while India B need just 4 more wickets to win the match.
