India A pacer Harshit Rana and Bangladesh A batter Soumya Sarka were involved in a verbal altercation during the Emerging Asia Cup 2023 semifinal clash
India A stormed into the final of the Men’s Emerging Asia Cup 2023 with an impressive bowling display against Bangladesh A on Friday. It was a comeback win for the Indian team as they found themselves massively behind the game after being bowled out for 211 with their opponent then racing away to 70/0 in the chase.
In what was a stunning turnaround, Nishant Sindhu took a five-wicket haul as India A skittled Bangladesh A for 160 in 34.2 overs in the second semifinal of the tournament played at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo.
It was a fiery clash between the two neighbours with Soumya Sarkar given quite a send-off by the Indian fielders.
The experienced Sarkar was sent packing on just 5 thanks to an excellent catch from Nikin Jose off the bowling of Yuvrajsinh Dodiya.
However, Sarkar and India pacer Harshit Rana then exchanged a few words with the latter heard saying ‘I am just celebrating’.
Apparently, Sarkar wasn’t happy with the celebration that followed after his dismissal. He was the fifth wicket to fall that left Bangladesh in deep trouble at 131/5.
