Brisbane: Rain might have prevented India 'A' opener, Akhil Herwadkar from scoring a century in Brisbane on the final day of the second unofficial Test against Australia 'A' last week, but the Mumbaikar is confident the exposure he got will come handy in the upcoming Ranji Trophy.

Herwadkar (21) was the leading run scorer for India 'A' in the two four-day matches with 148 runs at an average of 49.33 on pitches that aided seam and bounce.
