Yashasvi Jaiswal: India's Rising Star Dominates World Test Championship

Yashasvi Jaiswal: India's Rising Star Dominates World Test Championship
In an era where T20 cricket dominates popularity and generates the most excitement, a youngster has emerged as a symbol of patience and temperament in Test cricket. Yashasvi Jaiswal, 22-year-old youngster from Mumbai's Azad Maidan has become a standout star who shows classical Test batting mixed with modern aggression. As of the recent match against Australia, Jaiswal has amassed 1,028 runs in the current World Test Championship (WTC) cycle (2023-25), showcasing his exceptional talent and potential to become one of cricket's stars.

The Record-Breaking Journey


The left-handed opener's performances have been remarkable with over 1000 runs in just nine Tests with an impressive average of 68.53. What makes it even more special is that he now stands on the brink of breaking Ajinkya Rahane's Indian record of 1,159 runs in a single WTC cycle, needing just 132 runs to pass that milestone.

England Series: Love for Daddy Hundreds


One of the most defining moment of Jaiswal's WTC campaign came during the home series against England where he scored two double centuries. His 209 in Visakhapatnam followed by an unbeaten 214 in Rajkot made him the third-youngest Indian, after Vinod Kambli and Virat Kohli, to score consecutive double hundreds in Test cricket.

Perth Performance


When there were questions about his overseas performance in SENA countries, Jaiswal responded with 161 in Perth. After getting out for a duck in the first innings, he bounced back in the second innings, with 15 boundaries and three sixes, Jaiswal showcased his ability to adapt and in different conditions. The knock, which helped in a crucial 201-run opening partnership with KL Rahul, propelled him to a career-best ICC Test ranking of No.2, Nothing sort of a great achievement at this young age.

A blend of Attack and Defense


Jaiswal displayed his resilience during this innings. He played defensively for the first 20 overs, ensuring the Kookaburra ball lost its shine, before shifting gears to his natural attacking style. Facing a world-class bowling attack of Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazelwood and Pat Cummins and facing them for over a day and scoring 161 stands as a testament to his skills and adaptability. With 29 sixes in the current WTC cycle, he's closing in on Ben Stokes' record of 31 sixes and shows attack and defence both are part of his game.

A Reliable opener for India


Jaiswal emergence as a reliable opener has solved the search for a reliable opener. His consistency across conditions - whether the turning tracks of India or the bouncy wickets of Australia - has brought needed stability at the top of the order. 


A Journey of Perseverance
From sleeping in tents at Azad Maidan to becoming one of Test cricket's formidable batsmen, Jaiswal's journey shows perseverance and hard work. With age on his side and hunger for runs, Yashasvi Jaiswal’s performances in the World Test Championship signal the beginning of what could be a legendary career in Indian cricket.
