Dhruv Jurel, an emerging talent in Indian cricket, demonstrated his prowess with a maiden Test century against the West Indies, cementing his role as a dependable wicket-keeper when Rishabh Pant is unavailable.

The 24-year-old emphasized the importance of seizing rare chances by staying "one hundred per cent ready," exemplified by his 125-run innings contributing to India's 286-lead.

Guided by discipline and visualization, Jurel prepares diligently, attributing consistency advice received from England's Joe Root as instrumental. He remains focused on team success rather than personal milestones, highlighting the team-first ethic he upholds.
