With an impressive cricket match against Australia, Virat Kohli once again demonstrated his skills and rediscovered his form from previous years. However, it was Yashasvi Jaiswal who caught the attention of the experts and offered a glimpse into the future of Indian cricket.
Australia is clearly under pressure after three days, trailing by 522 runs in Perth and ending the day with a score of 12-3. India had previously declared at 487-6, with Jaiswal scoring 161 runs and Kohli remaining unbeaten with 100 runs.
Jaiswal expressed admiration and recognition towards Kohli, stating that his experience is an incredible asset. He himself came to bat at 275-2 and impressed with elegant play.
Kohli blew kisses to the crowd after reaching his 30th Test century and celebrated it with his wife, Bollywood star Anushka Sharma. This century, the first in 16 months, underscores his impressive record in Australia, where he has scored 1457 runs with an average of 56.
Although Kohli’s century was the highlight of the day, Jaiswal secured his position as Kohli's successor by contributing to the mammoth target of 534. His fearless play was highlighted by cautious strokes on the second day and bold attacks on the third day.
The 22-year-old scored his fourth Test century following a duck in the first innings with a daring shot against Josh Hazlewood. Jaiswal's ability to consistently achieve triple-digit scores is reminiscent of Kohli in his prime.
Jaiswal smoothly reached 150 runs before being stopped by a shot off Mitchell Marsh's ball and a catch by Steve Smith. Symbolically, at the end of the day, Kohli left Jaiswal to lead the team off the field with the words: "Go ahead. Modern Financial Markets Data
