Team India has to play a three-match Test series against New Zealand, which is starting from October 16 in Bengaluru.
Indian Test and ODI team captain Rohit Sharma has recently praised the excellent opening batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal. Let us tell you that recently, under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, Team India won the ICC T20 World Cup 2024. All the players from India performed brilliantly and played an important role in the victory of their team.
Now Team India has to play a three-match Test series against New Zealand, which is starting from October 16 in Bengaluru. However, before this Test series, Rohit Sharma has praised his opening partner Yashasvi Jaiswal. Both these players started opening for Team India during the West Indies series in 2023.
Rohit Sharma said in the press conference before the Test series against New Zealand, ‘Yashaswi Jaiswal is a very talented player. No matter what the situation, he knows his game very well. He is still a young player and it is very difficult to judge him. Although there are all kinds of materials inside them. They have faced very difficult situations and achieved success and that is why great players are seen playing for Team India.
This was a risk we were ready to take: Rohit Sharma
In the second Test match played against Bangladesh, Rohit and Yashasvi Jaiswal batted brilliantly and crossed the 50-run mark in the first three overs. Till now, no team has crossed the 50-run mark so quickly in the Test format. Not only this, the team had scored 100 runs in 10.1 overs, which is an incredible record in itself.
Regarding this, Rohit Sharma had said after the match that, ‘The batsmen should play with this mentality and look to score as many runs as possible. This was a risk which we were ready to take because if you bat like this then the team can be all out even on a low score. But we were prepared even if the team was all out within 100 or 150.
The first Test between Team India and New Zealand is starting from October 16 in Bengaluru. After this, the second Test between these two teams will be played in Pune, which will start from October 24. The third Test between these two teams will be played at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai from November 1.
