Yashasvi Jaiswal added to Mumbai’s Ranji Trophy squad for semifinal vs Vidarbha | Cricket News

Published by Webster

After missing out of the Champions Trophy squad, Yashasvi Jaiswal was on Thursday drafted into the Mumbai Ranji Trophy squad ahead of their semifinal clash with Vidarbha on February 17. Mumbai outclassed Haryana by 152 runs in their quarterfinal match at Kolkata on Tuesday. Jaiswal had previously played for Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy this season but could muster only 4 and 26 as his team went to down to Jammu and Kashmir in a shocker of a result. Things didn’t get better for Jaiswal in the Indian setup with the youngster then joining India for the 3-match ODI series against England where despite making his debut in the format in Nagpur, he could just score 15. After that, he had to sit out the next two ODIs as India went on to win the series 3-0. Jaiswal, who was in the preliminary squad for the upcoming Champions Trophy, was on Tuesday moved to the list of non-travelling substitutes alongside Shivam Dube and Mohammed Siraj, meaning they will travel to Dubai for India’s matches only …

Michael Vaughan expects the Australia quicks to target India opener Yashasvi Jaiswal with “barrage of bouncers” in the second Test, which starts from Friday in Adelaide. Former England captain said Australian bowlers were not aggressive enough against Yashasvi Jaiswal in the Perth Test, where the southpaw has scored a match-winning 161 in the second innings and helped India win the Test match by 295 runs. “Yashasvi Jaiswal is a wonderful young talent, but you go back five years, 10 years, or 15 to 20 years and when a young player came to Australia with a great reputation, the Australians would just pepper them,” Vaughan said on Fox Cricket’s podcast The Follow On. “I had it in 2002. They bombed me for about an hour. You know, ‘Can you play the short ball with all the fielders around the bat, with a couple on the boundary? Go on, try and play Brett Lee or Andy Bichel, Jason Gillespie, Glenn McGrath, Steve Waugh, with a load of fielders chirping in your ear.’ “I know it’s a different …

Border Gavaskar Trophy | ‘The panic in Australian ranks is palpable’: Sunil Gavaskar ahead of Adelaide Test | Cricket News

Border Gavaskar Trophy: With India going into the Adelaide Pink Ball Test match in the Border Gavaskar trophy with a 1-0 lead in the five-Test series and with reports of a rift in the Australian dressing room, Indian legend and former Indian opener Sunil Gavaskar understands that there is a panic in the Australian ranks and has called pacer Josh Hazelwood’s injury as a mystery ahead of the second Test starting December 6. “The panic in the Australian ranks is palpable, what with former players calling for heads to be chopped off and some even hinting at cracks in the Australian team after Josh Hazlewood’s media interview at the end of the third day’s play, where he suggested that it was up to the batters to now do something. Now, a few days later, Hazlewood is out of the second Test and possibly the series too with a supposed side strain. Strange, since nobody had noticed anything wrong with Hazlewood at that media conference. Mystery, mystery — the like of which used to be common …

Perth Test: The Yashasvi Jaiswal way – functional, personal, and occasionally artistic | Cricket News

Published by Webster

Yashasvi Jaiswal’s batting is firstly functional; secondly personal; and lastly, occasionally artistic. Australia saw all three traits during his unbeaten 90 that propelled India to a position of immense strength in the first Test at Perth. First, he controlled his urges to reach 50 in the slowest time he has done in Tests (123 balls) as his goal then was purely functional: to wear down the bowlers and get to a point where the ball goes soft. Then, he made it personal, as he often does when facing bowlers with big reputations – be it James Anderson in the India series or now Mitchell Starc and Co. in Australia. At one point, Starc was staring him down, but a little rewind is needed here. When Starc was batting in the morning, he had bantered with his IPL friend Harshit Rana, who had just bounced him, “I am going to bowl faster. I have a long memory”. Flash forward to that stare from Starc the bowler now. And Jaiswal went, “It’s coming too slow!”. Against Anderson, …

Yashasvi Jaiswal once again showed why he is the most vital cog in India’s new brand of T20 batting. The southpaw smoked a 34-ball 68, which not only set the tone for India but also helped the team chased down Afghanistan total with 26 balls to spare and take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series The southpaw revealed the role he has been given by the team and what he tries to achieve, while he is in the middle. “I have been told to go and express myself and try to do what I do. I keep working hard on my practice session on my process. When I get the chance I try my best and make sure that I am doing things for the team which is important and I am just trying to show my intent,” Jaiswal told reporters after the match. Jaiswal, who missed the opening match in Mohali due to sore groin said: “I was trying to punish the loose balls, and was focused to give my team a …
