The 26-year-old scored his maiden Test century, first ever by and Indian number 9 batsman.
New Delhi: In the on-going 4th Test between India and England in Mumbai, Jayant Yadav reminded Virat Kohli and Anil Kumble that they have another all-rounder in the squad apart from Ravichandran Ashwin.
The 26-year-old scored his maiden Test century, first ever by and Indian number 9 batsman, breaking the 51-year-old record of Farokh Engineer who scored 90 runs against New Zealand at Chennai in 1965.
In the 157th over the innings, Jayant hit a marvelous cover drive to Moeen Ali but what caught everyone's attention was the fact that the batsman had hit the ball through the legs of silly-point fielder.
A little here & there, things could have been painful for the England fielder placed at silly-point.
