India’s Shift in Test Series: Yasvi Jaiswal’s Exceptional Performance

• Yasvi Jaiswal, a highly rated youngster, made the most of three dropped catches to score his sixth Test hundred, extending India’s lead to 281.

• Jaiswal’s 107-stand for the third wicket with nightwatcher Akash Deep was a significant moment as England bowlers struggled to provide the breakthrough.

• Akash Deep, who scored his maiden international fifty, became the third Indian nightwatcher to score a Test half-century.

• Jaiswal played every ball on its merit, bringing up 82 of his first 100 runs behind square and his second hundred of the series.

• England started the second session well, but Shubman Gill was trapped in front off an in-swinging delivery by Gus Atkison.

• Despite dismissals, Jaiswal added 44 runs for the sixth wicket with Ravindra Jadeja and brought up his fourth century against England.

• Jadeja’s innings reflected the Indian team’s fighting spirit in coming back from difficult situations.

• Josh Tongue put the brakes on the innings, but Jadeja and Dhruv Jurel managed to survive on review.
