Everyone is eagerly waiting for the Border-Gavaskar series between India and Australia. Under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, Team India is all set to score a hat-trick of consecutive wins on Kangaroo soil. The performance of players like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah against Australia will definitely be in focus, but Yashvi Jaiswal can also blow away the Kangaroos. Former India bowler Anil Kumble believes that Yashasvi's hunger for runs will make him successful on Australian soil.
This player will bring success in Australia
Anil Kumble said in an interview, “Yashwin's hunger for runs and his technique will be most important. I see no reason why it shouldn't be successful in Australia. Yashasvi's performance in the WTC season has been excellent. We saw him playing with a different approach against Bangladesh. He was alert when the fast bowlers were helping him in the first Test. After this, in the second test, Yashasvi was again seen playing his natural game. This ability to change his game according to the situation will be very useful for Yashasvi in Test cricket, especially on a challenging tour like Australia.
'No need to change the game'
Anil Kumble further said, “I don’t think Yashasvi will change his attitude in Australia. Even though Yashasvi is going on Australia tour for the first time with the Indian team, he will get a big benefit. The reason for this is that the Indian team has registered a spectacular victory against Australia in the last two tours, which will boost the confidence of the young batsman. Teams visiting Australia are under pressure due to their poor records in their previous tours, but this will not happen with Team India. India has won the last two series in Australia.
Strong record of success in test
Yashasvi Jaiswal's record in Test cricket has been excellent. Yashasvi has scored 929 runs in 15 innings of 8 matches played this year at an average of 66.35. Yashasvi has scored two centuries and 6 half-centuries in 2024. Along with this, he has also scored a double century with his bat.
