This innings marked a significant statement from Jaiswal in his first Test match in Australia. Despite being dismissed for a duck in the first innings, the youngster bounced back emphatically, demonstrating his ability to learn and adapt quickly.
Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul’s remarkable opening partnership of 201 runs set the tone for India’s commanding position in the match. It was the first-ever 200+ opening stand for India against Australia in Test cricket. Rahul contributed a solid 77 off 176 balls before falling to Hazlewood, but the platform the pair laid could prove decisive.
