MUMBAI: In-form Mumbai opener Yashasvi Jaiswal has found a place in the India squad for the World Test Championship (WTC) final against Australia at The Oval in London from June 7-12 as a replacement for stand-by opener Ruturaj Gaikwad, who will be unable to travel to the UK for the match as he is getting married on June 2-3.
On Sunday morning, Jaiswal practised with the red ball at Bombay Gymkhana with Zubin Barucha (director of High Performance at the Rajasthan Royals). Since he already holds a UK visa, the 21-year-old will be flying to London tonight itself.
