In a resounding display of dominance, India clinched a historic victory in the third Test against England in Rajkot, achieving victory with an impressive margin of 434 runs. The match was characterized by a stellar performance from Yashasvi Jaiswal, who emerged as the standout player with his remarkable batting prowess.

From the outset, it was evident that Jaiswal would play a pivotal role as he smashed his second consecutive Test double century, setting the tone for India’s imposing total. His stellar contribution, coupled with a strong batting display from the team, propelled India to a commanding first-innings score.

Despite a shaky start on Day 1, with early dismissals of key batsmen including Jaiswal, Shubman Gill, and Rajat Patidar, Indian captain Rohit Sharma and all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja steadied the ship with a formidable partnership. Their centuries laid a solid foundation for India’s first innings total of 445 runs.

India’s second innings showcased another stellar batting performance, with Jaiswal leading the charge once again with his second double century of the series. Supported by Sarfaraz Khan, Jaiswal’s unbeaten partnership of 172 runs further bolstered India’s lead, as they declared at 430/4, establishing a formidable target of 539 runs for England to chase.
