IND vs WI Delhi Test: Team India’s star opener Yashasvi Jaiswal has achieved a new milestone by scoring a century in the Delhi Test against West Indies. He has scored a half-century in this match. He has become the second Indian after Sunil Gavaskar to do so.
Yashasvi Jaiswal Record: Team India’s star opener Yashasvi Jaiswal has scored a century while batting brilliantly in the 50th Test against West Indies. His bat is speaking loudly at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. This player completed his century in the first over of the third session of the first day. With this, a new record has now been registered in Jaiswal’s name in international cricket. Leaving everyone behind, he has come closer to former Indian cricket legend Sunil Gavaskar.
Yashasvi Jaiswal came close to veteran Sunil Gavaskar
Yashasvi Jaiswal has touched the mark of 3000 runs in his international career in the Delhi Test against West Indies. He has achieved this feat in just 71 innings. Before him, the fastest cricketer to reach this milestone is Sunil Gavaskar. Now Yashasvi’s name has been added to the second number in this list. Yashasvi has recorded this record by combining all three formats. However, to reach this figure, he has scored the most runs in Test cricket. At the same time, in T20 International cricket, he has 723 runs in 23 matches. Apart from this, he scored 15 runs in only 1 ODI, all the remaining runs came in Test format.

Yashasvi became the sixth batsman to score 3000 runs in 23 years
Apart from this, he has become the sixth batsman for Team India to touch the mark of 3000 runs in international cricket at the age of 23. The thing to note is that he has achieved this position only after scoring the most runs in Test cricket. Right now he has not got a chance to play in ODI cricket. At the same time, in T20 International cricket, his place is not being made in the Indian playing eleven, because Abhishek Sharma is opening brilliantly. Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill are the openers in ODI. In such a situation, it is becoming difficult to play there also. Despite that, he is making records just by playing Tests.
Got a place in Team India on Australia tour
Indian team’s Australia tour starts from October 19. Yashasvi Jaiswal has been selected in the Indian squad for the 3-match ODI series. However, Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill will play better openers, so it is not easy for them to play. Yashasvi’s play will be possible only if neither of the two players is fit for the playing eleven. At the same time, his place can be created only after Rohit’s retirement from ODI.
