Jaiswal retired hurt after century, England in his own style

Indian cricket team's rising star and star opener batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal scored a brilliant century in the second innings of the Rajkot Test against England. In the second innings of this match, Jaiswal scored a century in 122 balls and this was the third century of his Test career. He had scored 104 runs on 133 balls and then suddenly he had a problem with his back. After this he retired hurt and returned to the pavilion. His departure like this may affect the rhythm of Team India. He also scored a brilliant double century in the Visakhapatnam Test.

Opponents also became fans of Yashaswini

Yashasvi Jaiswal definitely disappointed in the first innings but the way he played in the second innings, the opposition also started praising his batting. When he returned after retirement, England captain Ben Stokes welcomed him with a handshake. Apart from this, the entire stadium stood up and encouraged him. Meanwhile, England's Test coach Brendon McCullum also stood up and applauded.

Sehwag's entry into the club

Yashasvi became the joint seventh fastest player to score three Test centuries. He achieved this feat in 13 test innings. Sehwag and former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar also did the same in the same innings. Sehwag praised Yashasvi profusely after his third Test century. Sehwag wrote on social media, “Two consecutive centuries from Yashasvi.” Played against the spinners the way it should be played. Give dhana dhana.”

India's grip is strong

By the end of the third day's play, the Indian team had taken a strong lead. Yashasvi may have retired but Shubman Gill is present at the crease after scoring 65 runs. However, Rajat Patidar was disappointed and was out for a duck on 10 balls. By the end of the day's play, Team India had scored 196 runs after losing 2 wickets. On the basis of first innings, India had a lead of 126 runs. India's total lead is now 322 runs. Now Sarfaraz Khan, Ravindra Jadeja are also going to bat for Team India. Now it remains to be seen how much target England gets in the fourth innings.

Difficult times for Team India

This is a difficult time for the Indian team. KL Rahul is out of the team due to injury. Virat Kohli is not a part of the entire series. Shami is also not fit and is out. Ravichandran Ashwin withdrew from the series due to his mother's health. Now Yashasvi's sudden return after playing such a good innings is a matter of concern for the team. Team India may still need success in the last two tests. The fourth test of the series will be played in Ranchi from 23 February and the fifth test will be played in Dharamshala from 7 March.
