The least experienced of the three Mumbaikars in India’s top four put his hand up on Friday, setting himself up as the glue that held the innings together at the ACA-VDCA Stadium. Yashasvi Jaiswal had looked a gift horse in the mouth in the first innings in Hyderabad, but he wasn’t going to let England off lightly yet again. In a stirring display of character, the left-hander danced to his highest Test score, his monumental unbeaten 179 the bedrock of India’s Day One tally of 336 for six.
