Yashasvi Jaiswal scripted history with his maiden ODI ton in the final ODI of the three-match series between India and South Africa at the ACA-VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam on December 30. Jaiswal's unbeaten 121-ball 116-run knock earned him the Player of the Match award in the series-deciding clash.
With that knock, he etched his name in the record books, becoming just the sixth Indian batter to have scored at least one century in each format. Jaiswal had already got his Test and T20I centuries in 2023.

Ahead of the three-match series, Jaiswal had only played one 50-over game for India, which came against England earlier in the year. The left-handed batter, who had had below-par outings in the first two ODIs of the recently-concluded series, made up by playing a free-flowing knock in the third.
