India won the toss and chose to bat first. Captain Rohit Sharma was the first to be dismissed for 14, caught at leg slip off debutant Shoaib Bashir. Thereafter, Yashasvi Jaiswal stitched partnerships with both Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer, but found himself running out of partners through the day.
After Axar Patel and KS Bharat both fell in the last half an hour of play, the scales were firmly tipped in England’s favour as India finished with 336/6, on a pitch which was not overly conducive to spin.
Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma, Shreyas Iyer: Complete list of Indian batsmen to have scored a century on Test debut
Jaiswal remained not out on 179 at stumps, his second Test century and highest Test score in his six-match career. Interestingly, his first century came on his debut in India colours. Here, TSN presents the list of all Indians to have scored a century on Test debut.

A total of 17 Indians have achieved this feat, with the highest score being Shikhar Dhawan’s 187 against Australia in Mohali. Apart from Jaiswal, the other members of the current Indian side to score a century on Test debut are captain Rohit Sharma, and Shreyas Iyer. Interestingly, three of these knocks came at Eden Gardens in Kolkata, and only seven were outside India.
No Indian batter has managed to score a century in both innings of their Test debut. That feat has only been achieved by two players; Lawrence Rowe (214 & 100*) for West Indies against New Zealand in 1972 and Yasir Hameed (170 & 105) for Pakistan against Bangladesh in 2003. Including Rowe, a total of seven players have scored a double hundred on debut.
