Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal left the audience charmed and gave tough times to the opponent as he smashed his second double-century in successive Tests during Day 4 of the ongoing match against visiting England in Rajkot on Sunday.

Jaiswal scored an unbeaten 214 runs with his willow.

He hit fourteen boundaries and twelve sixes in his sizzling knock.

Jaiswal returned to devastate English bowlers just a day after he battled back spasms.

With Sunday's show, Jaiswal became the second Indian left-handed batsman to score two-back-to-back double centuries in Tests.

Earlier, Vinod Kambli had achieved a similar record in 1993 in Test match.

India declared the second innings 430 runs for the loss of four wickets.

England will need 556 runs to win.
