Jaiswal's 173* lifts India to 318/2 on Day 1 of Delhi Test
The Statesman Delhi
|October 11, 2025
The opening day of the second and final Test between India and West Indies went on expected lines, as the hosts dominated the proceedings at the Arun Jaitley Stadium with Yashasvi Jaiswal slamming an unbeaten 173 to power India to a commanding 318/2 at stumps, here on Friday.
The left-hander's dominance, combined with Sai Sudharsan's composed 87, left the visitors chasing leather for most of the day after skipper Shubman Gill won his first toss in seven Tests and opted to bat first on a placid surface.
Jaiswal and KL Rahul began cautiously, grinding through a watchful first hour that saw India crawl to 29 without loss after 12 overs. Debutant Anderson Phillip generated some movement with the new ball and came close with an LBW shout against Jaiswal, which was turned down on umpire's call. But the hosts shifted gears soon after, with Jaiswal and Rahul finding rhythm against the seamers. Jaiswal's fluent straight drive off Phillip signalled the change in tempo, while Rahul launched Jomel Warrican for a towering 81-metre six.

Our Invisible Self ~I
Any posture which keeps the spine erect is said to be good for meditation, according to Patanjali. By penetrating the third eye or concentrating at the space between our eyebrows, we can dive deep inside ourselves and experience the Divine. By doing so, we can also develop our intuitional capacity or the sixth sense. When the fog of ignorance is removed by meditation, we see the right path and see God. God is immanent in the infinite bounties and beauties of creation. If we stay tied to the mundane and the finite, we cannot move towards the infinite God
