The look on Faf du Plessis’ face when Virat Kohli won the toss and elected to bat first foretold the story of what exactly transpired Day 1 of the opening Test match and Rohit Sharma, in the company of Mayank Agarwal, ensured it went absolutely that way. The 32-year-old, making his debut as an opening batsman for India in Test cricket, broke a slew of records en route registering his fourth Test century.
