In the England vs. India match The outstanding batter, Yashasvi Jaiswal, is currently in charge of the Test cricket league. The left-handed batsman has made an impression since making his debut in July of last year, amassing five scores above a century, including two double hundreds.
In the fifth and final test match of the series, Jaiswal scored seven hundred runs against England on Thursday, becoming the series’ highest run scorer. The five-game streak has officially started. Virat Kohli, India’s captain for the 2016–17 season, broke the record for most runs scored in a Test series. He scored 655 runs in the home series against England. Jaiswal’s actions led to the destruction of that record in England vs. India.
Jaiswal is currently the only other player from India to score more than 700 runs in a single Test series. Sunil Gavaskar is the only other player who has accomplished this feat. Over his career, Gavaskar has accomplished this twice: against Australia in 1978–1979, he scored 732 runs, and in 1971–1972, he scored 774 runs.

It’s feasible that the amazing start to the series will surpass Gavaskar’s record as the highest run scorer ever. This is because there’s a good chance there will be one more inning.
Jaiswal batted and made 58-ball-57 before Shoaib Bashir bowled him after Kuldeep Yadav and Ravichandran Ashwin thrashed England for 218 runs at the wicket. Bashir ended Jaiswal’s inning.
When Indian captain Rohit Sharma needed one more run than Jaiswal to achieve the 1000-run mark in 16 innings, Jaiswal became the third fastest opener in the history of Test matches.
After the first day of play in Dharamsala, India was behind by 83 runs at the end of the first inning. Only Shubman Gill (26*) and Rohit (52*) had not yet suffered a loss.
