Bengaluru, Oct. 31 -- South Africa A gained a 105-run lead over India A on Day 2 of the first unofficial Test at the Centre of Excellence Grounds here today.

After being bowled out for 234 in their first innings, India A could not contain the disciplined attack of Prenelan Subrayen, who returned figures of 5 for 61, showcasing his enduring resilience.
