Mumbai batsman (born in Uttar Pradesh) Yashaswi Jaiswal is making a name for himself in domestic cricket. Even though it was the first Irani Cup he was playing, he scored a double century and a century in one match without any fear. Yashasvi, who scored 213 runs in the first innings, shone with a century (144) in the second innings. He created history as the first batsman to score two centuries in the same match in the Irani Cup. Restoff India made a huge score in the Irani Cup with a booming success.
Yashasvi, who scored a double century on the first day of this match, which is being held at Gwalior since March 1, followed up with a century on the fourth day. He scored 144 runs in 157 balls with the help of 16 boundaries and 3 sixes and played another huge innings.
Restoff India made 246 runs in the second innings as Yashasvi got excited. It is known that the team scored 484 runs in the first innings. Madhya Pradesh was bowled out for 294 runs in the first innings. With that restoff India got a lead of 190 runs. The team scored 246 runs in the second innings and set a target of 437 runs against Madhya Pradesh.
Madhya Pradesh lost the wicket of opener Arham in the second ball of the target. Currently, at the end of 11 overs, the captain of the team Himanshu Mantri (26 not out) and Shubham Sharma (9 not out) are at the crease. The team will have to bat all day tomorrow to avoid defeat.
Yashaswi super form..
While Sarfraz Khan is already shining in domestic cricket, the selectors will face another headache in the form of success. In 15 first class matches played, Yashasvi scored 1,845 runs in 26 innings at an average of 80.21. It is noteworthy that there are 9 centuries and three double centuries. Along with centuries in the Ranji semis and quarters, Jaiswal also has the honor of scoring a century in the finals of Duleep and Irani Cup. When will the selectors give a chance to this young cricketer who is getting excited like his fellow player Sarfraz in Deshwali..?
