Former Indian player Anil Kumble believes Yashasvi Jaiswal has a great chance to score a triple century on Day 2 of the ongoing second Test
against the West Indies in Delhi as well. The youngster was at his best form from the opening day, finishing unbeaten on 173 off 253 deliveries at stumps as well. He also hit 22 boundaries, helping India finish the day at a dominant 318/2 in 90 overs as well.

Talking about his performance after the close of play on Day 1, Kumble said on JioStar (via IANS): “As Sai Sudharsan mentioned, they certainly want to bat as long as possible. Shubman Gill said at the toss that they want to pile on the runs, and that’s exactly what the Indian batters have done on Day 1. Jaiswal now has a great opportunity, not just for a double hundred, but maybe even a triple hundred tomorrow. Jaiswal is just getting better and better day by day.”

“We’ve spoken about his hunger and his attitude toward building big innings, not just for himself but for the team. Even in the previous game, he got off to a good start but was dismissed early, so he’s certainly made up for that here. Throughout his short career, he has shown that he doesn’t waste opportunities like these. Once he’s in, he makes it count, and that’s wonderful to see. He’s still out there, and he can go on to score big runs tomorrow,” he further added.

However, Yashasvi Jaiswal also smashed a brilliant 171 against the West Indies in his maiden innings as well.
