The powerful batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal played a big knock during the MI vs. RR match in the IPL 2023. However, the Rajasthan Royals lost their game by six wickets against the Mumbai Indians on April 30.
The 21-year-old cricketer has added a new record in cricket history by hitting a century at an iconic cricket ground. Jaiswal’s journey was not that easy, as he also started playing cricket when he was 11 years old. He was born into a poor family, and his father used to sell pani puri. However, he made his choice clear of becoming an Indian cricketer, and now he has made his name known around the world.
Previously, he gained attention when he scored 319 runs in the 2019-20 Vijay Hazare Trophy, which is India’s domestic one-day competition. This included a double century against Jharkhand, making him the youngest player ever to score a List A double century.
Despite his struggles, Jaiswal’s talent and potential were acknowledged by the Rajasthan Royals management, and they continued to back him throughout the season. He was also given opportunities to open the inning, which is his preferred batting position.
It’s important to remember that Jaiswal is still a young cricketer with a long way to go in his career. His experience in the IPL will undoubtedly have taught him a lot, and he will look to come back stronger in future seasons.
