Navjot Singh Sidhu is the only Indian opening that has scored tons of tons in the first half after being included in the stick against opposition which is of a good quality from home.
Kl Rahul joined him with a hundred in God on Thursday.
Sidhu has scored 116 against West Hindon in Kingston in 1988-89 against Curtly Ambrose, Ian Bishop, Courtney Walsh and Malcolm Marshall, but India only managed 289 and 152 and lost the match with seven goals.
When a house captain won a throw and insert the opposition, no doubt was the testing time for battery, especially the opening.
It was very difficult so even Great Sunil Gavascar had not managed to score one hundred in the first round in such a situation away from home against a quality attack.
Even Virender Sehwag, is praised for an unexpected approach to hit, has fought big time as an opening when faced with the above conditions.
He averaged 16 in eight innings like that.
Other Indian openers Murali Vijay, whose career test is 10 years, an average of less than 15 in five innings ‘experiments with fire’.
Shikhar Dhawan averaged 12.75 in four rounds in this case with three scores below 10.
And the standard slips that can be understood are not limited to Indian or away tests.
Even Alastair Cook of England has struggled, especially in the last phase of his career.
13 The last innings after losing the lottery and hit the first time only see one 30-plus score.
The opening of Matthew Hayden (Australia) and Graham Gooch (England) has four hundreds of each in this regard.
One of them is Triple Tons by Hayden (380).
But it should be noted that Zimbabwe Captain Heath Streak asked Australia to stare because he was not sure how the dough would cost the 1st day against the Aussie attack and it was also in Perth.
Even the poor West Indies team has now thrown some interesting examples.
In 2015, they asked Australia to look first at MCG with four top-five hosts dough get hundreds.
A year later, Windies did the same (won the lottery and involved) against India in the Gros Islet.
This time R Ashwin and Wriddhiman Sahha looted hundreds.
And in 2019, it was the turn of Hanuma Vihari to do the same thing in Kingston.
The 2017 Wellington test also threw a strange script after New Zealand asked Bangladesh to stare first.
The visitors collected 595/8 stated (Shakib Al Hasan 217 and captain Mushfiqur Rahim 159).
But they were still losing by seven numbers after getting all for 160 in their second essay.
It was a test match where 1,512 Run was given a score in less than 400 overs.
Since the introduction of the Indian Premier League (IPL) in 2008, regardless of the quality of the opposition, how many Indian openers scored a hundred people in the first round of the test match when the opponent has won a throw and send it? Only two.
The opening of the Singa Cheteshwar Pujara (145 *) did it on Sri Lanka at Ground SSC in 2015.
But there were no Indian opening specialists who carried out a bowling attack which was better than Sri Lanka in 13 years.
But Rahul had cut the trend after Rohit Sharma spent a ton in the ongoing God’s exam.
India lost five tests by innings after being included since 2008: At Centurion (2010-11), Birmingham (2011), Perth (2011-12), Oval (2014) and God (2018), plus 10-goal loss last year in Wellington .
India is all in less than 250 in the first round in 11 times in 18 of these tests.
It includes five examples to get everything less than 170 in the first round.
