IND vs ENG: Jaiswal will create history by scoring 120 runs in Dharamshala Test, will break Gavaskar’s 53 year old record
Sunil Gavaskar and Yashasvi Jaiswal. (Image Source: BCCI) India are set to face England in the fifth and final Test of the series at the Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamshala from March 7. India have already taken an unassailable 3-1 lead in the series thanks to their five-wicket win at the JSCA International Stadium Complex in Ranchi. This series will be remembered for a long time in cricket history. In fact, in this series against England, the Indian team managed to overcome the obstacles and eliminate the menace of ‘buzzball’. Many senior players of Team India were not available in this series, due to which four players got a chance to debut. While some players took advantage of that opportunity, some players could not capitalize on that opportunity. Yashasvi Jaiswal would like to break Sunil Gavaskar’s record in Dharamsala test match Talking about the upcoming match, Team India’s opening batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal will have his eyes on creating history in this match. Jaiswal has performed brilliantly in this series so far. So far, he has scored 655 runs in 8 innings of 4 matches with an excellent average of 93.57. His best score during this period has been 214 runs unbeaten. If Jaiswal is successful in scoring 120 runs in both the innings of the Dharamshala Test, then the record of scoring the most runs in a series as an Indian batsman will be registered in his name. This record is still in the name of former veteran player of Team India, Sunil Gavaskar. Sunil Gavaskar has crossed the 700-run mark twice in a Test series. The Little Master scored 774 runs in 4 matches at an impressive average of 154.80 during the Test series against West Indies in 1971. In the series played in 1978, he scored 732 runs in 6 matches with an average of 91.50. No one has been able to break this record of Sunil Gavaskar for the last 53 years.
