What a day for @SDhawan25. 1st Indian to a century before lunch on day 1. Only five before him in history. Reminds me so much of that test in Galle where he got 190 before tea.

This is why Dhawan keeps presenting himself as a tempting option to open the innings in Tests....only 6th player to score a century before lunch in Tests. Well played 🏏😊 #IndvAfg
