Virat Kohli ran three and completed his half-century after a low score in the first innings. This half-century will surely boost his confidence going forward in the series. It will be crucial for him to convert it into a triple figure score.

Yashasvi Jaiswal confirmed his status as India’s new batting star with an unbeaten century and shared a record 201-run opening stand with KL Rahul as India batted to a likely unbeatable position in the opening Border-Gavaskar test at the Perth Stadium.

Indian openers KL Rahul and Yashasvi Jaiswal did a splendid job on the second day of the opening Test match by adding an unbeaten 172 runs for the first wicket. Now both are eyeing to convert their good start into big knocks.
