IND vs ENG: The second match of the Test series between India and England is being played at Edgbaston. Team India has made a great start in this Test match. Opener Yashasvi Jaiswal, who scored a century in the first Test match played at Leeds, has maintained his form in this match as well. Jaiswal completed his half-century by scoring 62 runs till the lunch break on the first day. With this innings, he also broke a big record of former Indian Test captain Rohit Sharma.

Jaiswal's new record

Yashasvi Jaiswal has surpassed Rohit Sharma in terms of scoring the most fifty plus scores in SENA (South Africa, England, New Zealand, and Australia) countries as an opener. Rohit had scored 4 fifty plus scores in SENA countries as an opener, while Jaiswal now has 5 fifty plus scores to his name.

Jaiswal's recent form has contributed a lot to this achievement. He scored a century of 101 runs in the first innings of the Leeds Test. Apart from this, in the last Test series against Australia, he scored 391 runs in five matches, including a brilliant innings of 161 runs in Perth, 82 in the first innings in Melbourne and 84 in the second innings.

Rohit Sharma's SENA record

Rohit Sharma has scored three fifty plus scores in England as an opener in SENA countries. He scored 490 runs in 6 Tests in England at an average of 44.54. Apart from this, he also scored a half-century in Australia. However, Rohit could not perform well in Test cricket in South Africa and New Zealand.

Rohit announced his retirement from Test cricket just before the England series. Now he will be seen playing only in the ODI format.

Jaiswal's form is a boon for India

Yashasvi Jaiswal's consistently brilliant batting is providing a strong foundation for the Indian Test team. His aggressive and technically sound batting has not only given India a good start but has also shown that he is capable of handling pressure even in overseas conditions. His unbeaten 62-run innings in the Edgbaston Test has put India in a strong position till lunch on the first day.

Jaiswal's batting and the result of this Test series are going to be exciting for cricket fans in the coming days. Will Jaiswal be able to play another big innings in this match? It will be interesting to see.
