All-rounder Musheer Khan, whose first-innings knock of 181 set the base for India B's 76-run win over India A in the Duleep Trophy first round match at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, said he knew about getting an opportunity to perform in the tournament after doing well in Ranji Trophy. On the opening day of the match, Musheer impressed everyone with his temperament and grit to score a magnificent 181 runs in 373 balls - his third first-class cricket century. He also hit 16 fours and five sixes, to take India B from 94/7 to 321 in first innings. The total was enough for them to take a 90-run lead and eventually win the game.
