Yashasvi Jaiswal spoke about how KL Rahul helped him through their 201-run partnership at the Optus Stadium in Perth.

Yashasvi Jaiswal confirmed his status as India’s new batting star with an unbeaten century and shared a record 201-run opening stand with KL Rahul as India batted to a likely unbeatable position in the opening Border-Gavaskar test at the Perth Stadium.

Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal scored a brilliant century in the first Test against Australia, reaching the milestone off 205 balls with a six off Australian pacer Josh Hazlewood. Jaiswal and KL Rahul had previously added 200 runs for the opening wicket after India resumed their innings at 172-0 on Day 3.

SEN Cricket's broadcasters, dominated by Aussies, were ecstatic, and jubilant when Jaiswal ramped Josh Hazlewood for six to bring up his fourth Test century.
