The fans will be wild as Yashasvi Jaiswal turns his head in a stunning century on the first day of his first test – Eng vs Ind
India I got off to the command start on the first day of my first test England Headingley thanks to a stunning century composed from the opener Yashasvi Jaiswal. The 22-year-old Southpaw continued his romance with a milestone moment, reaching three numbers in the English soil at his debut test knock.
Indian opener after being put into a bat under a cloudy sky KL was satisfied And Jaiswal overcomes his early moves to connect a solid 91-run partnership. England came back just before lunch and quickly removed both openers in a row to stop India’s momentum. But unbound by pressure, Jaswal continued his signature talent and focus.
A century of Yashasvi Jaiswal’s roaring and jumping
Hi-Swal reached his century stylish with the final ball of the 49th, Brydon car Delivered through one point. Once he completed the run, he raised his arms, took off his helmet, made a roar of victory and ran out to celebrate. The celebration spoke volumes about his hunger and determination.
His innings were a mixture of perseverance and offense, constructing 16 crunchy, crashing boundaries and one towering six balls. He found a capable partner in Skipper Gill. He complemented him with a successful half-century, half-century, when the duo placed more than a century on the third wicket.
Jaiswal joins the elite list in India
In an unbeaten ton at Headingley, Jaiswal joined a group of brilliant Indian batsmen who scored over the centuries in his first Test innings in England. His knock is now standing with the great man Sourav Ganguly, Vijay Manjrekarand Murali Vijay.

Yashasvi Jaiswal – What a wonderful ton. I hope he scores Dad. The first LHB opener in England to reach a century. Last year, he hit more than 700 runs in the Home Series v England. You can get many runs in this series too.

A fantastic century @ybj_19 ybj_19๐๐! The partnership with Gill has led India to a strong position from the mini-crisis. The UK’s decision to bowl the bowl first is boomeranged. Indian batting is guaranteed and classy. ‘roko’s’absence bsrely felt
