Yashasvi Jaiswal created history during the Perth Test with a stunning knock of 161 against Australia as the visitors took a 1-0 lead in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT). Jaiswal scored the fourth Test ton of his career and became only the second player in the history of Test cricket history to achieve a huge feat.

In the morning, India captain Bumrah deservedly got his 11th five-wicket haul while debutant Harshit Rana bowled a fiery opening spell to dismiss the hosts for 104 at the stroke of lunch despite a stiff last-wicket resistance from Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood.

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.
