The biggest record can be made by 22 year old Yashasvi Jaiswal, whose bat is wreaking havoc in this series. He has scored 2 double centuries so far in this series. Apart from this, Indian captain Rohit Sharma, star spinner Ravichandran Ashwin and English player Jonny Bairstow will also make a big record. Yashasvi scored 2 double centuries against England. Yashasvi played an inning of 209 runs in the Vizag (Visakhapatnam) test match. Then he also scored 214 runs in the second innings of Rajkot Test. The way Yashasvi is performing, it is expected that he will break Sunil Gavaskar's 53 year old record in the next match.
Gavaskar's influence too
Great batsman Gavaskar is the Indian player who has scored the most runs in bilateral Test series. He made a splash in his first Test series against West Indies in 1971. Gavaskar scored a record 774 runs (including 4 centuries and three half-centuries) in 4 Test matches. Gavaskar's average at that time was 154.80. This is still the Indian record for scoring the most runs in a Test series.
Most runs in a test series
Yashasvi hit 23 sixes in the current Test series, while in the current Test series against England, Yashasvi has so far scored 655 runs in 8 innings, which includes two double centuries and two half-centuries. During this period, Yashasvi's average has been 93.57. Yashasvi has hit 63 fours and 23 sixes in the current series. In this way, if Yashasvi scores 120 runs in the remaining 2 innings, then he will become the highest run-scoring Indian batsman in the bilateral Test series.
Hitman Rohit Sharma is the king of sixes in test.
Indian captain Rohit Sharma has a golden opportunity to make the record of becoming an Indian who has hit the most number of sixes in his Test career. Rohit is the second Indian to hit 81 sixes in 100 innings of 58 Tests so far. Whereas Virender Sehwag has hit the maximum number of 91 sixes in Tests for India. If Rohit hits 11 sixes in the Dharamshala Test, he will break Sehwag's record. The record of hitting most sixes in overall Test career is in the name of England captain Ben Stokes. So far, he has hit 128 sixes in 183 innings of 101 matches.
