The flamboyant Yashasvi Jaiswal has achieved an incredible feat. Jasiwal is now the first Indian left-handed batter to score 600 runs in a single Test series. The young 22-year-old batter reached to this record in the fourth Test of the ongoing home series against England. 


Jaiswal is now leading an elite list of left-handers

Yashasvi Jaiswal had scored two hundreds and a fifty even before the start of the fourth Test match which is being played in Ranchi. He converted both two hundreds into double tons, equalling the great Virat Kohli's feat of hitting two double hundreds in a single series.

The southpaw has become the first Indian left-hander to hit 600-plus runs in a Test series. Indian batting legends like Sourav Ganguly and Gautam follow him in the list of most runs by a Indian left-hander in a series

The 22-year-old has also joined another elite list, becoming the third Indian score 600 runs in a Test series. The other two batters featuring in the list are also in the current Indian Cricket Team setup - head coach Rahul Dravid and senior batter Virat Kohli.
