[PICTURES/VIDEOS] Yashasvi Jaiswal - Outstanding Indian batter

Swashbuckler said:
Jaiswal will do well in Australia later this year.

A batting lineup of Rohit, Jaiswal, Gill, Kohli, KL Rahul, Pant, Jadeja will cause enough problems to Aussies.

Gill , jaiswal and pant these three can win a series again in Australia. They are perfectly suited for Australian conditions .

Indian team is built to do well in Australia, perhaps even our cricket ecosystem. Exceptions may be there but since the late 70s, Aus is one away venue where our players love to play test cricket.
 
Jaiswal not thrown at the deepend like some of the youngsters. He had a solid grind in first class system, India A system in such a short period. Made runs in prestigious tournaments like Irani Trophy. Infact century in both innings of different characteristic. A well prepared soldier who just has to fine tune his game overseas.
 
Absolutely ridiculous how good the batting talent is in india and how deep it goes.... I feel like their fringe B team players would easily be our best batsmen lol
 
Seems like a very hardworking and humble cricketer. No big attitude.

He is a gentleman like Sachin and Dravid.

I think he is a little over rated, really struggled in SA..

But lets see how his career goes.

In SA,test match pitches were awful. He batted with intent in 2nd match 2nd innings and made chase easier. In t20 he was able to score with out any trouble. I will like to see his game in eng.

Those were not pitches. Minefields especially against new ball.
 
Hope he converts this into something humungous 3 figure mark.
 
His shot selection is always going to be a problem. THere is nobody like Sehwag who could be aggressive and at the same time played percentage cricket. We have seen aggressive openers over the years. Srikkanth, Sehwag, Sidhu, Agarwal. But Sehwag is the ground stroke master
 
What a way to lose your wicket. Total lack of concentration. Yashasvi Jaiswal departs after scoring 80 off just 74 deliveries.

India has no more lefties until Axar and Jadeja. Their left arm spinners can have some breathing space
 
He is a mix of Ganguly, Saeed Anwar and Dhawan but 10x more talented than all of them. Unbelievable prospect.
 
Fifty for Jaiswal in the 2nd Test vs England.

His 3rd half-century in 89 balls

The Gill prediction did not go well, so best to hold off for a few years.

Don't want to jinx but he is the most well rounded batter I have seen come through for a while.

That is what you think based on one mean patch. Gill is also very special - by the time his career is over, his legacy will be greater than any Pakistani batsman in history.

Let us carry on the discussion on Gill in his thread please.

Jaiswal deserves his space for now.

Jaiswal is yet another Indian batsman who is comfortably better than Babar.

Very good start to his career.
Seems to be a very good batsman, Lets see how far he goes.

Strange obsession with Babar you have to mention him here. So far the only Guy who should worry about Jaiswal is Gill.
He has already taken his place in T20's.

Gill has nothing to worry about.

Kohli and Rohit are the end of their careers. Gill and Jaiswal will be their two stalwarts for the next decade.

Pakistani fans don’t know anything about batting. They think Gill is overhyped and that his career is under threat, but they will have their answer few years from now.

He is going through a lean patch and it can happen and does happen to everyone. India is persisting with him because they know that he is a generational talent.

Losing your spot momentarily in one format is not a problem. These things will happen until Kohli and Rohit are around and they will not be around for long.

Yes pakistani fans don't know anything and you are not one of them as you are not a pakistani.

What I know is that so far Gill is a complete failure.
He may turn it around but even he does it, he will just amass the runs, no crucial runs.
That's why he has a FC average of 80. He is brilliant against poor bowlers and/or ultra flat track.

By the time Gill retires, Gill vs Babar comparison would be as stupid as Kohli vs Babar comparison.

Jaiswal might be better than Gill and probably is, but both will leave behind bigger legacies than Babar.

Also, no more replies on Gill in this thread. Please read @MenInG’s post above.
 
Yashasvi Jaiswal's outstanding 179* (257) on Day One of the 2nd Test against England makes him the standout performer. Tomorrow's potential double century could be a knock destined to be remembered when others fell short.
 
What a talent! I am sorry that I underestimated Jaiswal. I'll eat my words.

Good to see the Indian batting factory still going strong.

Not every player is panning out well. Jaiswal is class. But Gill is average player overall. He is decent in ODI's and good in T20's. But as a Test player he is below average. His feet are stuck and plays with his hands after the ball pitches. Chases too many wide deliveries too.
Gill needs to be dropped for about an year so that he can work on his deficiencies in the domestics.

Hard working, yes.
But gentlemen like Sachin and Dravid, I doubt that.

I read once that he was sent off from the field by captain (Rahane I think), for sledging a lot in Ranji match. Lol
 
Importance of grinding out in first class is understated. Although he seemed to have picked up a few T20 habits his basics are still there. Paying respect good balls and punishing the bad balls. It should be a second nature for any test batsman. Unfortunately that quality is not ther anymore among current batsman. Getting out to horrible deliveries has become the second nature instead. Jaiswal has quickly corrected himself mentally from the first Test. Gill after leaving first season hardly played domestic.
 
YASHASWI JAISWAL........What a way to bring your 200 against England. A 4 and a 6 to reach the landmark. Wrote his name in the record books.

Youngest to score 200 for India in Tests:

21y 35d V Kambli 224 vs Eng Mumbai WS 1993
21y 55d V Kambli 227 vs Zim Delhi 1993
21y 283d S Gavaskar 220 vs WI Port of Spain 1971
22y 37d Y Jaiswal 201* vs Eng Vizag 2024
 
Took him just 10 innings to score a double century. Absolutely fantastic.
 
Scored a mammoth 209 in just the 10th inning of the career. Jaiswal truly deserved this send-off from the English side.

And still our selectors choose the worst of the lot! Full on quota system happening! Btw, cant make heads nor tails about the choice of bowlers. We have bowlers who bowl in excess of 148/150.. But guess who gets chosen? Mukesh kumar!
 
Well, he started superbly in the 2nd innings but his stay was a short one. Out for 16 this time. Could not replicate even 10 percent of what he did in the 1st innings. Anderson got him with a beauty.
 
Rohit: Jaiswal's double ton was exceptional
Rohit on opening partner Yashasvi Jaiswal:

"He looks like a very good player. He understands his game really well. I hope he stays humble.

"He has a long way to go but he is taking the most of every opportunity and his double hundred was exceptional."
 
What a player he is becoming for India. Fifty in 1st Test Match, Double Hundred in 2nd Test Match and Now Fifty in 3rd Test Match. Simply sensational.
 
Yashasvi Jaiswal smashed his 3rd Test hundred in his career, displaying proper dominance throughout the innings by the youngster against England in 3rd Test

Yashasvi Jaiswal is handling the Bazball perfectly

Joint Most Test Centuries by an Indian Opener vs Eng in India for Yashasvi Jaiswal

2 Centuries in just 6 inns

Others with 2 tons

Murali Vijay in 7 inns
Pankaj Roy in 8 inns
Budhi Kuderan in 10 inns
Rohit Sharma in 13 inns
Motganhalli Jaisimha in 13 inns
Sunil Gavaskar in 38 inns
 
Jaiswal has struck yet another 150-plus score of the series and this is his 2nd in the 3rd game till now. He is looking strong to make another double ton here. This guy is in some form. The best batter of the current Indian side by far.

Fewest inngs to 3 X 150+ scores
10 Neil Harvey
13 Yashasvi Jaiswal
15 Don Bradman
15 Graeme Smith
18 Cheteshwar Pujara
 
Records galore for Jaiswal and India in Rajkot win

Yashasvi Jaiswal broke a slew of records with his second double century in the Test series against England as India beat the tourists by a whopping margin.

Yashasvi Jaiswal made an unbeaten 214 to register back-to-back double centuries, continuing a mind-boggling start to his career in the longest format of the game.

His stunning knock helped India take a 2-1 lead in the ICC World Test Championship series against England at home. Chasing a mammoth 557 for victory, England were bowled out for 122. India jump to second in the WTC standings for this cycle with the win.

After seven Tests, Jaiswal now has 861 runs at an average of 71.75, including three hundreds, all of which have been converted to 150-plus scores. With all his runs coming in the current WTC 2023-25 cycle, Jaiswal also rises to the top of the leading run-scorer list ahead of Usman Khwaja (855 runs).

The opener's stunning knock in Rajkot broke several long-standing Test records.

Feasting on sixes

Jaiswal hit 12 sixes during his 236-ball 214*, equalling the record for the most sixes in a Test innings set by Wasim Akram way back in 1996 during his knock of 257 against Zimbabwe.

The left-hander now has 22 sixes in the series, making it the most any batter has recorded in a bilateral Test series. Jaiswal beat the record set by his opening partner Rohit Sharma in 2019 against South Africa (19 sixes).

As a team, India has smashed 48 sixes in the ongoing Test series, the most any team has hit in a Test series. India beat the record they themselves set against South Africa in 2019 (47 sixes). 28 of those 48 sixes came in the Rajkot Test alone, the most by any team in a single Test match.

Double joy for Jaiswal

At an early stage in his career, Jaiswal has already showcased a penchant for big scores with his three hundreds converted to scores of 171 (on debut), 209 and 214*.

Jaiswal made back-to-back double hundreds at the age of 22 years and 49 days, making him the third youngest batter in the world to record two double centuries in Tests after Sir Donald Bradman and Vinod Kambli, both of whom were 21 when making their second double century.

He also became the third Indian batter to make back-to-back double hundreds in Tests after Kambli and Virat Kohli.

Big numbers for team India

India hit more than 400 in both innings of the Rajkot Test, making it just the third time the team has done so in a Test match.

India had made 407 and 407/9 against Pakistan in Kolkata in 2005. Four years later against Sri Lanka in Ahmedabad, the team made 426 and 412/4.

India's margin of victory in Rajkot — by 434 runs — is the largest for them in terms of runs where all four innings were played. The previous highest was a win by 372 runs against New Zealand at the Wankhede in 2021.

India leapfrogged Australia in the WTC 2023-25 standings to go to second position. New Zealand remain on top with a point percentage of 75% after four Tests in the cycle. India are second with 59.52% while Australia are just behind with 55%.

The way he bullied Anderson must have been a reality check for him. He ended up bowling wider and wider. He still managed to hit through leg side. 3 back to back sixes of Anderson with utter disdain eclipsed Rishabh pant's treatment of Anderson.
 
He’s batted well but people are getting way ahead of themselves. He’s batting on flat pitches against a spin attack of Hartley, Rehan Ahmed, and Joe Root.

He’s averaging 100 at home but averaged 12 in the series in South Africa.

Wait until he bats in different overseas conditions before declaring him the greatest batsmen of all time.

He is a good prospect. Even if he can do half of what he has done in India till in overseas series. He will be a certified great. But a long way to go.

Those SA wickets are not wickets. Those were terrible wickets. Not many averaged 50 there. Everyone averaged more or less well under 50. Anyway nobody claimed him ATG. But the way he thrashed Anderson was phenomenal.

Pant did that there as well. I am sure Jaiswal would do. Anderson by the way bowled on flat subcontinent wickets before. How many times he got hit for 3 sixes in a row by anybody. Hecek he even bowled to guys like Sewhag.
 
This series so far

Jaiswal 545 runs 50 fours 22 sixes 109 avge

DUckett 288 runs 47 fours 2 sixes 48 avge

Ollie pope 275 runs 33 fours 1 six 47 avge

Gill 252 runs 27 fours 4 sixes 42 avge

Rohit 240 runs 30 fours 3 sixes 40 avg

Crawley 226 runs 30 fours 4 sixes 37.66 avge

Look at the gulf between him and others. staggering.

Joe Root had scored 737 against India in a 5 match test Series in England in 2021-22.

Jaiswal needs another 193 to overhaul that one to get some sort of revenge. He has minimum of 2 and a maximum of 4 innings to get there.

Babar Azam averaged 58 in that series. It’s probably best to do basic fact checking before you make yourself look so foolish.

Also, no one is pretending Babar is the GOAT, he’s a pretty average Test batsmen. On the other hand, in this thread Indian cricket fans are pretending like Jaiswal is a combination of Tendulkar and Vivian Richards because he scored on the flattest pitches against Rehan Ahmed and Hartley.

Possibly, but you don’t get awards for performances you haven’t done yet.

So far he’s bashed Rehan Ahmed and Hartley on flat pitches at home and failed miserably when the ball was moving in South Africa.

The goal post for Indian batters will keep moving, if Jaiswal scored runs in SENA then there will be a post that how many of them were in wins etc. So for now I am happy how he has been playing, at least he is helping the team win at home. SA pitches were horrible, the home side was bowled out for 55 for crying out loud. Can't judge players based on that series. We need to wait and see how he does but for now he is brilliant. India needed players to play well against spin and score runs at home as well.

Jaiswal
Would say pant if he was there but he is injured
Other 3 I would say is
Rachin ravindra
Brook if he can improve vs spin
Last one would be
Markram imo
 
The first step towards being a world class Batsman is to be able to dominate any attack on any pitch at home.

Jaiswal has taken half that step.

The next step is how he performs away. If he is able to do well away, he becomes a world class Batsman.

Then comes the final and the hardest step for any asian Batsman, to score runs in SENA. He does that. He is on his way to greatness.
