Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal has maintained his impressive batting form in the ongoing Test series against England. Yashasvi Jaiswal secured his second double-century within the first three matches of the series, showcasing his batting prowess in international cricket.
The Indian team began their second innings at 196/2 with Shubman Gill and Kuldeep Yadav at the crease. The duo added a 55-run partnership for the fifth wicket before Shubman Gill was dismissed. Gill fell nine runs short of securing his second century of the series.
Yashasvi Jaiswal came to the crease after Shubman Gill’s unfortunate run-out. The left-handed batter scored 104 off 133 balls, featuring nine fours and five sixes, before retiring hurt yesterday due to back spasms. He continued his batting form in the match on the fourth day.
Yashasvi Jaiswal Smashes His Second Double Hundred In Test Cricket
The 22-year-old batter reached his 150 runs off 192 balls during the first over after the lunch break. The southpaw converted all three of his centuries into scores of 150 or more runs, including his maiden century against the West Indies on his debut last year.
He showed more aggressive intent after reaching the milestone. He smashed veteran English pacer Jamerson for three consecutive sixes. He broke the record for the most sixes in a Test innings for India. He also set the record for the most sixes in a Test series for India.
The Mumbai cricketer scored his second double-century in Test cricket during the 97th over of India’s second innings. He pushed Joe Root’s delivery to the covers to reach the milestone. The young batter smashed two sixes immediately after achieving this incredible feat.
Yashasvi Jaiswal leads the batting charts in the ongoing Test series between India and England with more than 500 runs to his name. His crucial double-century played a pivotal role in helping the team bounce back in the series and secure a 106-run victory in Vizag.

This is not Yashasvi Jaiswal & Sarfaraz Khan batting for India & smashing the opposition in a Test match. This looks more like Yashasvi Jaiswal and Sarfaraz Khan batting for Rizvi Springfield & smashing the opposition in a school game at Azad Maidan #IndvEng
