00:00After struggling to dismiss India in the first test, a daunting day was ahead of the Wendy's bowlers as India decided to bat first.
00:08And Yashashvi Jaiswal and Kiel Rahul were both looking to up the task.
00:13Anderson Phillip was brought in to support Jaden Seals on a slow track.
00:18But while they were economical, the bowling wasn't penetrative.
00:23Except for this delivery from Jomil Warikon.
00:25Spun! And Kiel Rahul looks back at the pitch with suspicion.
00:30Jomil Warikon has him for the second time in two test matches.
00:33That ticket was virtually an anomaly as Jaiswal and Saiz Sudharshan started dominating.
00:39Jaiswal's class was on show as he raised his half century.
00:42When there's low bounce, but this one is going to bring up his half century because he's timed this ball beautifully through covers.
00:49And Jaiswal in a span of just four deliveries post-lunch rumps to his 50.
00:55Sudharshan had his moment as well.
00:57That's the 50 moment.
01:00His second half century in test match cricket.
01:03And Jaiswal's seventh test turn will put him among illustrious company.
01:07Number seven for Yashashvi Jaiswal.
01:11A hundred.
01:13Very, very well crafted.
01:15Respecting the conditions.
01:16The opposition backing himself.
01:19Staying in there.
01:20Saying if I stand in long enough you can't get me out.
01:23And he now has seven hundreds.
01:25Only Graham Smith as an opener had seven international test match hundreds before the age of 24.
01:32It took a review but the Wendy's finally had a reprieve as Oricon broke the 193 run second wicket stand.
01:38Richard, the state of your original decision.
01:42But there was no reprieve from Jaiswal as he showed his penchant for runs.
01:46Of an appetite that is unquestionable, unquenched.
01:53Five now of his seven test match hundreds are 150 plus.
01:58He would close on 173 as India dominated the opening day from start to finish to close on 318 for two.
