Lanky speedster Amit Bhandari's six-wicket burst on the final day was the highlight of the three-day match between India 'A' and English county side Glamorgan, which ended in a tame draw at Swansea on Saturday.

Bhandari's scalps helped India 'A' take a first innings lead of 25 over Glamorgan as the hosts were bundled out for 140 in reply to the visitors' 165.

India were 27 for 1 in 10 overs in their second innings when the match was called off. The visitors lost their first wicket in the second over of the innings when Satyajit Parab (0) was snapped by Michael Powell off David Harrison.

When the match ended, Parthiv Patel was batting on 14 and Vijay Bhardwaj on 12.

Earlier, resuming at 104 for four, Glamorgan could add only 36 runs to their overnight score before losing all their remaining batsmen as Bhandari wreaked havoc claiming wickets at regular intervals.

Bhandari, who had taken two wickets on Friday, took four more wickets on Saturday morning to finish with figures of six for 38. Laxmipathy Balaji provided perfect foil to the Delhi-based bowler by claiming three wickets for 58 runs.

It was Balaji who broke the overnight partnership between Adrian Shaw and Mark Wallace, who put on 56 runs for the fifth wicket.

India 'A' will play their next match, a limited-over contest, against Gloustershire on July 28 at Cheltenham.
