MUMBAI: With the sensational manner in which he has scorched Test cricket so far, having raced away to 1217 runs in just 11 Tests so far at an admirable average of 64.05, including three hundreds and seven fifties, Yashasvi Jaiswal has already generated plenty of excitement in the cricketing world.
Having amassed 929 runs in eight Tests this year at 80.64 - 712 of them in the five Test-series against England in February-March - Jaiswal has been unstoppable. While he has dominated and decimated bowling attacks in India-smashing three quickfire fifties in the recently-held two-Test series against Bangladesh, the jury is still out on whether he would be able to replicate his success in Australia in the five-Test series for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, which will begin at Perth on November 22, considering the pace and bounce the pitches in that country offer, and the quality of the pace attack that the hosts possess.
