Yashasvi Jaiswal’s Six-Fueled Spectacle Sets Rajkot Alight: Creates History with Record-Breaking Double
Yashasvi Jaiswal made history in the third Test against England at Rajkot by scoring his second double century in Test cricket. He equaled the record for the most sixes in a test inning, previously set by Wasim Akram, by hitting 12 sixes. Additionally, he became the first batsman in Test cricket’s 147-year history to hit 20 or more sixes in a single series. India, led by Rohit Sharma, also set a world record for hitting the most sixes in a series, surpassing their own previous record. In the Rajkot Test, India hit a total of 28 sixes in the first innings and 18 in the second innings, setting a new record for the team. Jaiswal’s remarkable innings of 214 not out, supported by 14 fours and 12 sixes, contributed significantly to India’s commanding lead of 556 runs when they were declared. Despite England’s efforts, particularly by bowlers like Rehan Ahmed, India’s dominance in batting was evident throughout the match.
