BGT 2024-25: Jaiswal And Rahul Lead India’s Stunning Turnaround With 218-run Lead On Day 2
With the heavy roller used before day two’s play began and once after Australia’s first innings ended on 104, as India grabbed a handy 46-run lead, it meant the pitch eased out under the baking sun. That made life easy for Jaiswal and Rahul, who ended Day 2 not out on 90 and 62 respectively, as the duo have now put India into a potential winning position, with their second innings score standing at 172/0 in 57 overs.
Jaiswal, playing his first Test in Australia, came off a duck in the first innings, but showed balanced composure and aggression to be in complete control of hitting seven fours and two sixes. On the other hand, Rahul was calmness and solidity personified to hit four boundaries as he and Jaiswal batted two whole sessions unscathed for India to dominate day two’s play, where just three wickets fell in 81.2 overs.
