Yashashvi Jaiswal is just 97 runs away from breaking the 49-year-old record by little master, legendary Sunil Gavaskar. Yashasvi needs to score only 97 runs, to become the fastest Indian to score 2000 runs in Tests.
In his 20th Test match career Yashashvi has scored 1903 runs with a magnificent average of 52.86. Sunil Gavaskar still holds the record, who reached this milestone in his 23rd Test back in 1976.
In this transition phase for Team India, Jaiswal’s form and overall performance in test cricket are a significant positive for the team. He scored an impressive century in the first innings of the opener match of the Anderson- Tendulkar Trophy.
Yashashvi Jaiswal scored a century his first century in his debut against West Indies. After that, he proved himself in Australia and now in his first match on the English soil, he again proved why he belongs here.
After Gavaskar, Rahul Dravid and Virender Sehwag are in the list who reached the milestone of two thousand Test runs in their 25th Tests, respectively.
