This was the second double century of his career. On the basis of this innings, India took a lead of more than 500 runs and defeated England by 434 runs. After the defeat against India, England batsman Ben Duckett has given a statement regarding Yashasvi Jaiswal. For which former England captain Nasir Hussain has reprimanded him.
What statement did Duckett make about Jaiswal?
England's star batsman Ben Duckett made a strange comment during a press conference, saying, 'When you see opposition players playing like this, it seems we should take credit for how they think. They play Test cricket not based on how they think other people play. We saw that to some extent over the summer and it's exciting to see other players and other teams adopting an aggressive approach to cricket. He looks like a rising superstar. At present he is in very good form. Nasir Hussain did not seem happy with this statement of Duckett.
Nasir Hussain was sad
Former England captain Nasir Hussain criticized England's Ben Dessett for saying 'Jaiswal has learned from us', saying, “He has not learned from you.” He has learned from his upbringing and the hard work he has done growing up. He has learned from IPL. If something happens, I will look at it and learn from it. The former captain also said this during a podcast.
