IND vs ENG 2nd Test: Jaiswal hits maiden double ton before ENGbowl out IND

Opener Yashasvi Jaiswal hit his first Test double century as India ended their innings on 396 all out on day two of the second match against England on Saturday.

The left-hander resumed on 179 and smashed debutant spinner Shoaib Bashir for a six and four to get past 200 in the opening session in Visakhapatnam. He removed his helmet, jumped with joy and blew kisses to a weekend crowd that rose for a standing ovation to applaud his marathon knock.

Jaiswal, 22, led India`s innings single-handedly after the hosts, who trail the five-match series 1-0, elected to bat on Friday. Veteran pace bowler James Anderson finally got Jaiswal out for his third wicket. Bashir wrapped up the innings and he and fellow spinner Rehan Ahmed also took three wickets each.

Jaiswal`s overnight partner Ravichandran Ashwin departed for 20 in the first hour of play when he edged a moving delivery from Anderson to the wicketkeeper. He charged on to become the third-youngest Indian to make a 200 in Tests but lost his patience against the 41-year-old Anderson, who got the batsman to slice the ball and get caught

Jaiswal made a valuable partnership of 70 runs with debutant Rajat Patidar who departed on 32 on day one of the IND vs ENG 2nd Test. England`s debutant spinner Shoaib Bashir struck three wickets and conceded just 138 runs in 38 overs. Veteran pacer James Anderson, who featured in the IND vs ENG 2nd Test after missing the first match picked three Indian scalps for 47 runs. Rehand Ahmed also did not take a step back and helped his team register another three wickets for 65 runs.
