Enjoyed Hitting Anderson For Three Sixes: Yashasvi Jaiswal

Sir Donald Bradman: Left-handed opener Yashasvi Jaiswal, who hit an unbeaten 214 in India’s 434-run win over England in the third Test, said he enjoyed hitting veteran fast-bowler James Anderson for three sixes during his enthralling knock.

After retiring hurt on 104 due to back cramps on day three’s play, Jaiswal made 214 off 236 balls in India’s second innings total of 430/4 declared, making a double century for the second match in a row. Jaiswal, who scored 171 on debut against the West Indies in July last year, hit 14 fours and 12 sixes, and levelled with Wasim Akram for the world record for most sixes in a Test innings.

"I think I was in a really good zone. I felt if he was going to bowl there, I would need to play my shots. He is a world class bowler and I made sure that if I were going to hit him, I did it well. I was just trying my best and I really enjoyed that," said Jaiswal to broadcasters JioCinema after the match ended.
