Team India secured a grand-fashioned win at the Optus Stadium in Perth as they gained their prime form to beat Australia. The Men in Blue had the last laugh in the opening match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series.

Yashasvi Jaiswal jumped two places up to No.2 in the latest Test rankings for batters. The youngster scored a hundred in the Perth Test and helped India win by 295 runs at the Optus Stadium.

Jaiswal, the batsman who has battered all bowlers in India, in West Indies, but couldn’t replicate it on tough Test pitches in South Africa - his only real blip so to say - has taken that big step in Australia.

Having made his mark in Australia with his very first outing, Jaiswals journey looks promising. With his hunger for runs and unwavering focus, hes on track to become one of Indias leading batters in the years to come.

Yashasvi Jaiswal admitted that he was left a bit confused when it came to celebrating the magnificent hundred he scored in Perth against Australia. Jaiswal's maiden hundred down under setup a fine win for India in the first Test.

Having moved to Mumbai from Uttar Pradesh's Bhadohi at age 11 to train at Azad Maidan, Jaiswal lived in tents with the groundsmen and sold paani puri at night to earn money for food.
