India Vs England, 1st Test Day 1: Yashasvi Jaiswal Unfurls 'Jaisball' After Spin Troika Bowls Visitors Out For 246 - In Pics

After spinners put England batters through a harsh scrutiny, Yashasvi Jaiswal rolled out his own version of ‘Bazball’, perhaps call it 'Jaisball', en route a crushing fifty as India posted 119 for one to take the upper hand on day one of the opening Test in Hyderabad on Thursday, January 25, 2024. At close, Jaiswal (76 batting, 70 balls, 9x4, 3x6) and Shubman Gill (14 batting) were at the crease and the hosts are 127 runs in arrears of England’s anaemic first innings total of 246, which was built around skipper Ben Stokes’ hardheaded 88-ball 70, PTI reports. Around Stokes, England batters crumbled as the spin troika of Ravichandran Ashwin (3/68), Ravindra Jadeja (3/88) and Axar Patel (2/33) rudely nudged them back to reality of batting on an Indian pitch that offers barrowful of turn and grip even from day one.
