Yashasvi Jaiswal delivered a standout performance with a superb century on Day 1 of the first Test against England at Headingley, helping India reach 359-3. Calling it a "very special" innings, the 23-year-old left-hander said the knock meant a lot to him after all the hard work he had put in.

Jaiswal partnered with new captain Shubman Gill, who remained unbeaten on 127, to dismantle England’s bowling. Reflecting on Gill’s knock, Jaiswal praised his composure.

This innings adds to Jaiswal’s impressive record against England, following his 712-run home series last year, further establishing him as a key player in India's lineup.
