Yashasvi Jaiswal smashes century against England in 3rd Test. In the third Test on Saturday, the tourists were facing a batting collapse when Yashasvi Jaiswal withdrew injured following a fearless century that increased India’s lead over England to 322.
India had scored 196-2 in their second innings before the close of the third day in Rajkot. At the crease were night watchman Kuldeep Yadav (3) and Shubman Gill (65).
Yashasvi Jaiswal scored his third century in Test cricket on Saturday in Rajkot against England, putting on a spectacular show of power hitting. In the second innings, Jaiswal demonstrated his domination over the visiting bowling attack by reaching this milestone in just 122 deliveries. Jaiswal’s two three-figure scores in the series came from this century and his incredible double-century in the previous Test in Visakhapatnam.
At first, the young Indian opener played his innings like a traditional Test player. Captain Rohit Sharma and his opening partner Rohit Sharma grabbed control of the early overs as Jaiswal conservatively scored only 9 runs off his first 39 deliveries. But once Rohit was dismissed just before the tea break, Jaiswal began to take charge of the game and progressively made his presence known.
Approaching his half century , 22-year-old Jaiswal demonstrated a significant change in style. As someone who had presented him with difficulties in the previous Test in Vizag, Jaiswal specifically targeted the seasoned English pacer James Anderson. In the 27th over, Jaiswal demonstrated his supremacy by hitting three straight boundaries – a six and two fours – against Anderson, essentially redeeming himself from his early expulsion in the opening innings on a pitch that favored the hitters.
He also achieved the fifty-run milestone with considerable flair, hitting spinner Tom Hartley for a huge six wide of long on. After ousting Rohit early on, the English squad was initially focused on taking control, but they were startled when Yashasvi Jaiswal skillfully changed gears. The opposition was concerned by his effective control of his shots, which was most noticeable when he hit Hartley for a thunderous six right after completing his half-century.

At the Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot on Saturday (February 17), Yashasvi Jaiswal achieved his second century of the series in India’s ongoing third Test match against England.

Once settled, India rapidly added runs and quickened the run-scoring as the left-handed batsman unleashed a variety of blows.
However, not long after the 100, the 22-year-old was observed complaining of back pain and appeared to have pulled a muscle first. With two Test matches left in the series, Jaiswal appeared keen to play even if there is no official word on his injury. However, he received some treatment on the field and was instructed to return to the dressing room by the team management. In the end, Jaiswal retired with 104 off 133 deliveries due to injury.
