In the wake of Yashasvi Jaiswal’s sensational batting display, Rohit Sharma remained cautious in his praise for the rising cricket sensation. Despite the cricketing world showering accolades on Jaiswal for his remarkable achievements, Rohit emphasized the importance of keeping the young talent grounded and not letting the hype overshadow his early success in international cricket.
Jaiswal, who amassed a staggering 500 runs in three Tests and recorded back-to-back double centuries, has garnered comparisons to legends like Don Bradman and echoes of Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag. The 22-year-old’s remarkable feat of hitting 12 sixes in an innings, sharing a record with Wasim Akram, has fueled the hype around him.
While acknowledging Jaiswal’s exceptional performance, Rohit Sharma stressed the need for temperance, cautioning against excessive praise. In the post-match presentation ceremony after India’s colossal 434-run win over England in Rajkot, Rohit expressed, “I want to be calm about him, not talk a lot about him. He’s started his career on a high.”
Jaiswal’s astonishing statistics include a record-breaking 22 sixes in the series, the most-ever recorded by a batter in a Test series. His lowest score among his three centuries is an impressive 171. Moreover, he joins the elite club of Indian batters, including Vinoo Mankad and Virat Kohli, to score multiple double-centuries in the same Test series.
Rohit Sharma, echoing his sentiments from the end of the second Test, continues to stress the importance of humility and a long journey ahead for Jaiswal. As the cricketing world revels in Jaiswal’s feats, Rohit Sharma’s measured approach emphasizes the need for balance and focus in the young batter’s burgeoning career.
