Jaiswal increased Rohit’s tension, struggled against the fast bowler in the nets, had a long conversation with Virat
Yashasvi Jaiswal and Virat Kohli (Photo Source: X) Yashasvi Jaiswal struggled against the pacers in the nets on Sunday, September 15, ahead of the start of India’s first Test against Bangladesh. The Test match will be played at the iconic MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Seeing Yashasvi Jaiswal struggling in the nets, former captain Virat Kohli and head coach Gautam Gambhir had a word with the youngster to help him regain his confidence. Let us tell you that Jaiswal failed to make an impact in the first class match in the current season as well. In the Duleep Trophy match, he returned to the pavilion cheaply on the balls of Avesh Khan and Khalil Ahmed. Before the match against Bangladesh in Chennai, Jaiswal practiced a lot against Bumrah. However, he looked troubled against net bowlers like Simarjit Singh, Gurnur Brar and Gurjanpreet Singh along with Bumrah. The ball took the outside edge of his bat many times. Yashasvi Jaiswal got bowled by Jasprit Bumrah in the nets According to a report in the Indian Express, Kohli was standing near the centre-square of the MA Chidambaram Stadium waiting for his turn to bat, where this incident took place. During this time, Jasprit Bumrah bowled Jaiswal by uprooting his middle stump in the nets. The ball hit the stump between Jaiswal’s bat and pad. After this, Jaiswal was seen talking to Virat Kohli. Virat Kohli was probably telling this young player about his shortcomings. Kohli and Jaiswal batted for about an hour in the net session. During this, Bumrah also troubled Kohli. Kohli, however, played some brilliant cover and on drives. Jaiswal looked comfortable against spin bowlers. Still, during the practice session, Jaiswal’s confidence seemed to be shaken and he was not able to adjust to the swing and bounce. However, he used his feet well against the spinners and hit some brilliant square cuts. After this, Rishabh Pant, who came for practice, did not hesitate to play aggressive shots while batting against left-arm spinners. Indian players also did fielding practice during this time, in which priority was given to the practice of catching catches in the slips.

Who is this young couple? Robin Uthappa praised Team India’s young opening pair Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal and said that the game of these two reminds him of Sourav Ganguly and Sachin Tendulkar. However, the pair of Shubman and Yashasvi have not been seen together in the ODI format so far, but they are making a splash in the T20 format. Let’s know what he said- ‘When I see them together in the field, I remember Sourav Ganguly and Sachin Tendulkar. They used to come together in the field. During this time, their game seemed to complement each other. Their strategies complemented each other. This is what I see now with these two batsmen when they are batting in the field.’ Yashasvi Jaiswal will soon get a chance in ODI format- Robin Uthappa Also, Uthappa said that Yashasvi Jaiswal will get a chance to bat in ODI matches as well. Jaiswal, who has played 22 T20 matches so far, has not yet appeared in a single ODI match. On this, he said- “When Jaiswal gets a chance to play ODI cricket, I think he will secure that place very quickly. Because after Test cricket and T20 cricket, ODI cricket will become very easy for him because Jaiswal is capable of scoring runs all the time.” Yashasvi Jaiswal Career Yashasvi has played a total of 9 Test and 23 T20 international matches so far. His bat has produced runs at an average of 68.53 in Tests and 36.15 in T20s. Yashasvi has 4 centuries and 9 half-centuries to his name in both formats combined.
