Akshay Thakur - Friday, Oct 03, 2025KL Rahul scored his 11th Test century in the first Test against the West Indies at the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium. This was his second Test century in India.
KL Rahul celebrated his century in the first innings of the first Test against the West Indies in Ahmedabad by whistling in a unique way. This was Rahul's 11th Test century and his second in India. Rahul was dismissed for 100. West Indies had scored 162 runs in the first innings.
In December 2016, KL Rahul scored his fourth Test century against England at the M. Chidambaram Stadium, his first Test century on home soil. This is the first time Rahul has scored a Test century in India since then.
KL Rahul completed his century just minutes before the end of the first session. He took a run off the fifth ball of the 65th over and whistled on the field in celebration. He recently became a father of a daughter, and this celebration may have been related to that.
