ENG vs IND: Yashasvi Jaiswal Roars After Reaching Three-Figure Mark, Becomes 1st Indian Opener To Score Century At Headingley; Video

Team India opener Yashasvi Jaiswal roared in ecstasy after a stunning hundred on day one of the first Test against England at the Headingley, Leeds. The left-handed batter couldn't contain his delight as he took a giant leap and became the first Indian opener to score a ton at the storied venue.

The moment occurred in the 49th over of the innings sent down by Brydon Carse, who conceded a boundary off the very first ball. The southpaw slammed boundaries in fourth and fifth deliveries of the over as well, followed by tapping one to the off side for a single. After getting out to the other end successfully, the 23-year-old took his helmet off and took a leap to celebrate.
