India Dominates Day 1 at Headingley with Jaiswal`s Century

India`s Jaiswal shines with a century as they dominate Day 1 at Headingley, with Gill`s bold captaincy strategy in focus.

India made a strong statement on Day 1 of the first Test match at Headingley, Leeds, against England. Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal formed an impressive unbroken partnership of 123 runs for the third wicket by Tea, with Jaiswal showcasing his talent by scoring a dazzling century. Earlier, India’s openers set the tone with a solid 91-run stand before England struck back, taking two wickets late in the first session.

New Test skipper Shubman Gill is open to the idea of fielding four tailenders if it means assembling the best bowling attack to secure 20 wickets, indicating a bold strategy for team balance. The match is being covered live with expert commentary from Harsha Bhogle and Dinesh Karthik, who emphasize the importance of India dominating the first two sessions on Day 2. Gill aims to emulate the legacy of Virat Kohli at No. 4.
