ENG vs IND: Rahul, Jaiswal record India’s highest Test opening partnership at Headingley


KL Rahul and Yashavi Jaiswal recorded the highest opening partnership for India in Test cricket at Headingley, Leeds, during the side’s opening game against England on Friday.

The left-right batting pair broke the record held by Sunil Gavaskar and K Srikkanth, who added 64 against England in 1986.

Jaiswal and Rahul saw off the new-ball challenge from England, to put on 91 for the first wicket to give India a strong start.

The partnership was finally broken after Rahul (42) edged a fuller delivery from Brydon Carse to Joe Root at second slip.

This was the second 50+ opening partnership between Jaiswal and Rahul, after the 201-run stand they put together against Australia in Perth in 2014.
