Ravindra Jadeja has scored his sixth Test century and became the third Indian to score a ton on Day 2 of the first Test against the West Indies in Ahmedabad. Jadeja got to the mark in 168 balls and marked the milestone with his trademark sword celebration with his bat. Washington Sundar was at the other end and incidentally, Jadeja had the same partner batting with him the last time he scored a Test century as well.

That was in an effort to save the fourth Test against England at Old Trafford in Manchester. This time, though, it was hammered home India’s dominance over the West Indies. India’s total reached 437/5 at the time that Jadeja took the single to reach the milestone, their lead having swollen to 274. Stumps were called shortly after with India’s score 448/5, leading by 286 runs.
