India declare after Jaiswal's second double century of series
Yashasvi Jaiswal smashed an unbeaten 214 as India declared their second innings on 430-4 to set England a victory target of 557 on day four of the third Test on Sunday.
The left-handed Jaiswal, who retired hurt on 104 on day three, returned to bat in Rajkot and took the attack to the opposition in an unbeaten 172-run stand with debutant Sarfaraz Khan (68).
He removed his helmet, kissed the India logo and raised both his arms to a cheering Sunday crowd that rose for a standing ovation.
Jaiswal, 22, has been in prolific form after he hit a match-winning 209 in the second Test and leads the batting chart in the five-match series with more than 500 runs.
He is playing his seventh match and 12th innings in a career that began last year with a debut knock of 171 in the West Indies.
