Here’s Why Rohit Sharma Refuses To Give Yashasvi Jaiswal Credit After His Double Hundred In The Rajkot Win Against England

Yashasvi Jaiswal’s Test career is off to a fantastic start. After Virat Kohli, he is the only other Indian batsman to score back-to-back double hundreds for his country. With two games left in the five-match series, India leads the hosts 2-1 thanks to his 214 not-out in the second innings of their fantastic victory in Rajkot. Remember that India was down 0-1 after their defeat in the first Test match in Hyderabad. Their remarkable recovery can only be attributed to the skill of young players like as Shubman Gill, Sarfaraz Khan, and Yashasvi, as well as their great performances from Rohit, Ravindra Jadeja, and Jasprit Bumrah, among others.

Although everyone is giddy over Yashasvi’s innings, Rohit restrained himself from complimenting the young player too much. Rohit said that he does not want to speak about Yashasi as much since he has already spoken about him extensively in the previous past. Rohit’s comment demonstrated his leadership abilities as well since he did not want a team member who is having a terrific Test career to get sidetracked by the attention.

“I have spoken a lot about him, and others in Vizag and beyond the changing area have also talked about him. After India’s victory in Rajkot, Rohit stated at the post-match press conference, “I don’t want to talk too much about him, he has started his career on a high, I want him to continue doing well, yeah looks a good player.”

Sachin Tendulkar has been praising Yashasvi, and he has been doing it rather often. ‘Yashasvi Bhava’, the phrase elders use to bless someone, was what Sachin had posted. The iconic Indian player was unable to resist tweeting about Yashasvi again after his stunning double-hundred in Rajkot. He also included Sarfaraz in his compliments, emphasizing the crucial part that two players played in the victory. Sachin penned: “Two hundred. Twice as many. Yashasvi and Sarfaraz have caused England twice as much problems. Although I was unable to attend their live performance, I was delighted to learn about their knocks. Continue as you are.”

The series consists of two remaining matches. Ranchi will host the next test, and then Dharamsala. In the future, it will be intriguing to watch how many more records Yashasvi can shatter.
