He has played in all five matches of the away series for the Shubman Gill-led side and, with the help of four fifties and one century, has scored more than 480 runs in the ongoing series.<\/p>\n<p id=\"1\" class=\"story_para_1\">At the time of filing the report, he was batting on 19 runs from 31 balls.<\/p>\n<p id=\"2\" class=\"story_para_2\">He came out to bat at No. 7 for India in the second innings on Saturday (August 2), and during his stay at the crease in the second session, when he crossed the 12-run mark by hitting Jamie Overton for a four on the first ball of the 60th over, he took his tally of runs to 475, which is one more than VVS Laxman\u2019s 474.<\/p>\n<p id=\"3\" class=\"story_para_3\">During the India tour of the West Indies in 2002, Laxman played all five matches at No. 6 or lower and scored 474 runs.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4\" class=\"story_para_4\">No Indian batter has scored more runs for India in a Test as a No. 6 or lower batter than Jadeja now.<\/p>\n<p id=\"5\"
