2nd Test: Jaiswal's Unbeaten 179 Propels India To A Fighting 336/6 On Day 1 Against England

Rajasekhara Reddy ACA: Late strikes by Shoaib Bashir and Rehan Ahmed brought England back into the match even as Yasashvi Jaiswal's highest Test score of 179 off 257 deliveries propelled India to 336 for 6 at the end of Day 1 of the second Test at Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium here on Friday.

The England bowlers took three wickets in the final session to leave honours even on a pitch that hasn't offered any great deal of turn so far while India added 111 runs in the last session of the day.

An unlucky dismissal for debutant Rajat Patidar, who looked in great touch, as Ahmed’s googly rolled back onto the stumps after hitting the bat. Patidar got out for 32 after he and Jaiswal, who struck 17 boundaries and five maximums in his unbeaten knock, added 70 runs for the fourth wicket and were looking set to put India in the driver's seat.
