Jurel, who scored 125, stitched a crucial 206-run partnership with Jadeja (104 not out) after having a brief 30-run stand with Rahul (100). The trio\u2019s efforts ensured that India declared at 448\/5 ahead of day three\u2019s play in response to West Indies' first-innings score of 162.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cWhen I was batting in the 90s, I was constantly asking Jaddu bhai about the options I can have of scoring runs and if I was playing well and to tell me if he felt I was getting lazy. When senior players are around, things become a lot easier. I started my innings with KL bhai. It became easy as he kept telling me about my options and what shots I could play,\u201d said Jurel in a video posted on bcci.tv on Saturday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Asked about guiding Jurel, who got his chance to play due to first-choice keeper-batter Rishabh Pant being injured, Jadeja said, \u201cI was just telling him that just feel free and play your shots.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Rahul also echoed in the same vein. \u201cI have spent a lot of time talking cricket with him. I have seen him work really, really hard on his game. I am really happy for him. First hundred is super, super special.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n

\u201cIt gives me the freedom to go out there and enjoy my cricket. Every day is a new opportunity to learn something new. I am grateful that the last few months have gone really well for me,\u201d he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
