When the BCCI XI'x 4th wicket fell in their 2nd innings, they were just 39 ahead, and with a long tail to come the West Indies A bowlers sensed an opening.
Some excellent bad wicket batting by Dilip Vengsarkar secured the draw for the home side, but not without a fight.
It took some gritty late order batting to see them to safety, before bad light finally stopped play.
The West Indies A bowlers could take heart from an improved performance, their pace bowlers enjoying favourable conditions throughout the match.
Man of the Match was Ezra Moseley, his bowling on the 1st day being some of the best of the tour.
