Opener Prithvi Shaw slammed 188 off 169 balls and Ravikumar Samarth made 137 as India A amassed 536 for four against the West Indies A on the third day of the first unofficial Test here.
At stumps, India A led by 286 runs with six wickets and a day's play remaining in the game at the Kent County Cricket Ground.
India A thus made amends for the horrendous batting display in the first innings when they were bundled out for 133 in just 42.1 overs.
The West Indies A scored 383 before being bowled out for a substantial lead.
However, the Indian batsmen feasted on the West Indian bowlers in their second innings as they not only overcome the first-innings deficit but also raced to a handsome lead.
After his failure in the first innings, opener Shaw smashed 28 boundaries and two sixes during his blazing knock, while Samarth found the fence 14 times.
