Yashasvi Jaiswal will be very satisfied with the series that he has had: Anil Kumble

India clinched a brilliant victory in the fourth Test against England in Ranchi and now has a commanding 3-1 lead in the series. The series also witnessed the emergence of a new batting sensation, Yashasvi Jaiswal. With his consistency and capabilities with the bat, Jaiswal has registered his name in the history books of the game.

Jaiswal's rise in the series has been nothing short of spectacular. He equaled the illustrious record set by none other than Virat Kohli for the most runs scored in a single Test series against England, tallying an impressive 655 runs in just four Test matches.
