Rahil Shah makes steps towards first class debut
Former Shireshead player Rahil Shah's pursuit of representative honours continued earlier in the Indian season when he was named in the Tamil Nadu Cricket Association squad alongside Indian internationals Dinesh Kartik, Vijay, Badrinath and Balaji. He has played three games - twice against New Zealand 'A' and once against Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association.
Against New Zealand 'A' he was successful picking up the wickets of Jamie How, Neil Broom, Gareth Hopkins, Peter McGlashan and Nathan McCullum (twice) - all players who have played for New Zealand in international cricket - plus the wicket of promising player Bradley Watling. In the two games, Rahil finished with 3/68 from 22.5 overs and 4/69 from 17 overs.
