YASHASVI Jaiswal and KL Rahul are walking off the field at The Perth Stadium on Saturday evening.

Jaiswal notices him, lets out a big smile and salutes at the veteran as an acknowledgement.
If there is ever a moment that encapsulates Day Two of the first Test between India and Australia, this was it. The former captain and one of the greatest batters from the country—who would have never been more happy to remain padded-up and wait for two whole sessions without getting a chance to bat—knew the significance of what Jaiswal and Rahul had done on Saturday. After the opening day where 17 wickets fell, the Indian openers had batted out two sessions without getting out, adding 172 runs and in the process, extending the lead past 200 (218) at stumps.
