Yashaswi Jaiswal tenía un récord mediocre en los países del SENA antes de este partido. Pero ahora ha acostado a sus críticos.
Jasprit Bumrah-led India has scripted history. In the absence of incumbent skipper Rohit Sharma, Bumrah led the pack superbly, taking the side to an unprecedented win in the first Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) Test at the Optus Stadium. Following the match, it was Bumrah who won the Player of the Match, as he took a brilliant fifer in the first innings. His spell was special as it laid a platform for India to go on top within Day 1.
Bumrah’s Man of the Match is Yashasvi Jaiswal
During the post-match presentation, Bumrah was asked who would be his player of the match if he got to choose. Bumrah replied in a very sensible manner, as he claimed that personal accolades don’t make him feel overawed. At the same time, Bumrah didn’t fail to mention one name who played his best Test knock ever. It was none other than Yashasvi Jaiswal, who mustered a historic 161 off 297 balls.
“If I had to give man of the match award I would give it to Yashasvi Jaiswal. I think this was Yashasvi’s Best Test innings,” claimed Bumrah while addressing the media post the Perth Test match. Even during the chat with Adam Gilchrist, Bumrah lauded the way Jaiswal batted. “Very happy. We were put under pressure in the first innings, but the way we responded was great. I played here in 2018 – I remember the wicket started soft. This one was less spicy, we were really well prepared. I told everyone to keep faith in your ability. Jaiswal’s best Test innings so far, he left the ball well.“
