India vs England, 1st Test: We are trying to play strokes, be positive, says Yashasvi Jaiswal

HYDERABAD: Yashasvi Jaiswal is relishing the opportunity of playing his first Test in familiar conditions at home after four matches in overseas conditions. The 22-year-old left-handed opener scored 171 on debut against the West Indies and followed it up with scores of 57 and 38 in the Caribbean islands. The two-Test series in South Africa didn’t go too well for him as he scored 17 and five in Centurion and 0 and 28 in Cape Town.

“This is my first Test in India and I was thinking about contributing and doing well for my team. When I was playing in the West Indies and in South Africa it was quite different. Here it’s a different environment. I’m enjoying all the places as it is a proud moment for me to play for the country,” he said.
