Let us tell you that in the second innings of the match, he played an excellent inning of 214* runs, due to which India was successful in setting a strong target of 557 runs for England to win in the second innings.

Jaiswal came in to bat after the runout of Shubman Gill (91) on the fourth day, and started the game with a lead of 104 runs, after he had retired hurt due to back pain on the first day of play. So as soon as he scored a double century in the match, he made a special record in his name.
