Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium. The young Indian prodigy exhibited a brea🦂thtaking array of strokes, leaving spectators in awe of his talent.
Yashasvi Jaiswal’s unyielding onslaught
Choosing to bat first after winning the toss, India’s opening pair, Yashasvi and Rohit Sharma set a solid foundation. While Rohit took a cautious approach, Jaiswal unleashed his aggressive style, capitalizing on loose deliveries from the English bowlers. Despite the early dismissal of Rohit, falling victim to debutant Shoaib Bashir, Jaiswal remained unfazed, continuing his onslaught alongside Shubman Gill (34).
Yashasvi reaches his hundred with a six
Even after the departure of Gill, Jaiswal’s approach remained unaltered as he built a substantial partnership with Shreyas Iyer (27), eventually reaching the three figures. The young batter’s consistency and smooth strokeplay caught the attention of cricket enthusiasts. What made his century even more special was the audacious manner in which he reached the milestone – with a powerful six that showcased his fearlessness at the crease.
A rising star
Yashasvi’s journey in Test cricket has been nothing short of remarkable. With two centuries in just six matches, the young prodigy is fast becoming a force to be reckoned with in international cricket. His fearless approach, coupled with a wide range of strokes, makes him a promising asset for Indian cricket.

Youngest among all the Indian batters, Yashasvi Jaiswal has batted🅠 with great maturity in this inning🎉s so far. Has shown patience and courage in equal measure. His 100 has set things up nicely for this inexperienced batting.

He averages 70 in FC cricket with 11 100s, now gets his 2nd counterattacking hundred. I won't he's here to stay. Rather, India needs him to stay for the next decade. LHB, Aggressive game changer, run hungry monster. Well done, Yashasvi Jaiswal. It's just the beginning. Bat big.
