KL Rahul hit his 11th test hundred before Dhruv Jurel and Ravindra Jadeja formed an unbeaten century partnership, driving India's lead to 164 against West Indies. India reached 326-4 on day two, with key contributions from Rahul, Jadeja, and Jurel, steadily dominating the match.
In an impressive display of cricket prowess, KL Rahul notched his 11th test hundred, setting the stage for a significant partnership between Dhruv Jurel and Ravindra Jadeja. Together, they forged an unbroken century stand, catapulting India to a commanding lead over the West Indies on day two of the opening test.
Jurel was solid at 68 not out during the tea break, with Jadeja supporting him at 50 not out as India comfortably stood at 326-4 at the Narendra Modi Stadium. Following India's earlier effort, which saw West Indies dismissed for 162, the home side pressed forward with momentum bolstered by Shubman Gill and KL Rahul.
Despite Rahul's dismissal shortly after reaching his milestone century, India maintained pressure. Jadeja, making up for his captain's departure, hammered Warrican for two sixes, reaching a crucial 108-run stand with Jurel for the fifth wicket and further tightening India's grip on the game.
