Chennai, July 22 (IBNS): Lokesh Rahul impressed with his willow as he scored 96 runs to help India 'A' post 221 runs for the loss of six wickets on the first day of the 4-day match against Australia 'A' here on Wednesday.

Rahul  (96) and skipper Cheteshwar Pujara  (55) added 107 runs in the second wicket partnership to stabilise the ship after India lost the early wicket of Abhinav Mukund (9).

Losing some quick wickets, India were left at a moderate score of 221 for six  at the end of the day with Vijay Shankar (4*) and Amit Mishra (0*) to resume proceedings on second day of the game.

Rahul  missed touching the four-figure mark against a tough opponent but displayed his skills as he scored 14 boundaries in his 185 balls.

Andrew Fekete and Steve O'Keefe took two wickets each for Australia A.
