On the second day of the Test match, India continued their impressive batting performance, building a substantial lead of 162 runs with eight wickets still in hand. Following the dismissal of Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli entered the crease and partnered with Yashasvi Jaiswal to elevate India's score to 312.

While Jaiswal is on the verge of reaching a well-deserved 150 runs, Kohli contributed an unbeaten 36 runs from 96 balls. Interestingly, it took the star Indian batter until his 81st delivery to hit his first boundary.

The batsman who is known for his aggressive style, even in Test cricket, took his time when he came to bat. Hence, when he executed a sublime cover drive against spinner Jomel Warrican and sent the ball racing to the boundary, the 34-year-old couldn't resist a mock celebration.

With a cheeky look towards the dressing room, Kohli playfully celebrated the four, highlighting his own knack for setting the tone of his innings. Along with Kohli, Yashasvi was also grinning sheepishly as the latter's long wait for a boundary came to an end.

Earlier, skipper Rohit Sharma and Jaiswal stitched a remarkable partnership of 229 runs not only solidifying their dominance but also etching their names in the history books.

The opening pair's double-century stand created history, as it surpassed the previous record of 159 runs set by Virender Sehwag and Wasim Jaffer in the 2006 Gros Islet Test.

Rohit and Jaiswal now hold the record for the highest opening partnership for India against the West Indies in Tests.
