Suryakumar Yadav made his Test debut against Australia in the ongoing Border Gavaskar series 1st Test on Thursday. The limited-overs specialist was selected on the merit of his x-factor game which matched injured Rishabh Pant's template as a batsman.
Surya came into bat with India in a spot of bother after losing Virat Kohli on the first ball after lunch. The right-handed batsman found the boundary on the very second ball of his debut innings a present for things to come you would think.
