India is rebuilding and they are still good. Most of the batters are young.

Josh Tongue to Jaiswal, SIX, there's a deep point but Jaiswal doesn't mind that. He goes after this short and wide delivery outside off, reaches for it and carved it flat, was in the air but flies over the sweeper cover fence, great timing and it flies off the bat

Bashir to Shubman Gill, FOUR, fast outfield and it beats the man in pursuit! Flighted delivery full outside off, Gill prods forward and opens the face of the bat to squeeze it away through backward point, Tongue gave chase and it kept gaining on him

Brydon Carse to Jaiswal, FOUR, crunched! Length delivery slanting across outside off, just a fraction short and wide and Jaiswal doesn't need second invitations to dispatch this to the point fence with a fierce cut, he's into the 90s now!

Are you insinuating that if Athanaze were Hindian, then he also would've been part of the current test 'team'?

Brydon Carse to Jaiswal, FOUR, he's in a hurry now, on to 99! Pitched up full and outside off, Jaiswal presses right forward and drives it away firmly through the covers, leans right into it and gets it past Stokes at cover
48.4
Brydon Carse to Jaiswal, FOUR, you can't bowl there to Jaiswal! He'll feast on them all day, cramp or not, short and wide outside off, Jaiswal slashes it away with purpose through backward point, there's a big hundred drawing ever closer
