Following the emphatic 295-run win over Australia at Perth on Monday, India captain Jasprit Bumrah lavished praise on young Yashasvi Jaiswal. Hailing his century as Perth as Jaiswal's best ever, Bumrah said the young left-handed opener left the ball well.

Yashasvi Jaiswal lived up to the billing the Australia media had given him ahead of the Border Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) opener in Perth. The 'New King' not just brought up his maiden century in Australia in his first match Down Under but also reached the milestone with the kind of bravado that fans used to associate with former opener Virender Sehwag.

Yashasvi Jaiswal hit his 34th six of the year during the Perth Test, surpassing Brendon McCullum's record for the most sixes in a calendar year in Test cricket. His partnership with KL Rahul helped India reach 172/0,
