IND and OFF: The first match of the five-match Test series is being played between India and Australia. In the first game of the series, India’s opening batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal was dismissed for a duck. People have high hopes for Yashasvi Jaiswal in this match. Jaiswal scored a total of 8 goals in this game. India were first hit by Jaiswal in this match, who scored just 5 runs. In the first game of this game, he had a special opportunity to set a world record, but he missed it. In that case, let us know what that world record is.
Jaiswal misses record
Team India’s young opener Yashasvi Jaiswal has been fantastic this year. In 2024, he got a chance to play in the Australian tour after scoring a lot for the Indian team. However, the start of this series has not been good for him at all. Meanwhile, if we tell you his record, Yashasvi has hit 32 sixes with the bat in Test cricket so far in 2024. In this case, if he can hit two more sixes in the Perth Test, he will break the record of former New Zealand captain and veteran wicketkeeper Brendon McCullum and set a new world record. This would set a record for the most sixes hit in Test cricket in a year. Currently, the record for most sixes in a year in a Test match belongs to McCullum, who hit a total of 33 sixes in 2014.
Player who hit most sixes in Test cricket in a year
- Brendan McCullum – 33 sixes (2014)
- Yashasvi Jaiswal – 32 sixes (2024)
- Ben Stokes – 26 sixes (2022)
- Adam Gilchrist – 22 sixes (2005)
This series is very important for the Indian team
This Test match is very important for the Indian team as they suffered one-sided defeat in the three Test matches at home against New Zealand, so the path to the final of the 2023 World Test Championship – 25 may have been difficult now . In this case, the Indian team must perform better in this series. Team India has to win at least four games in this series to reach the final, which will be a very tough task. Several players in the Indian team were injured even before the series started. Therefore, he had to withdraw from the 11-man roster. The first name among them is Shubman Gill.
