India's rising star Yashasvi Jaiswal has commenced training for the upcoming five-match T20I series against the West Indies after a memorable debut series in the Caribbean.
Jaiswal, who made a strong impact in his maiden Test series, shared a video on his Instagram, showcasing his recent workout session with a motivating caption, "Work hard, every yard. No excuses. #I TRUST I BELIEVE YBJ 64."
During his first Test series, the left-handed batter impressed with an impressive total of 266 runs at an average of 88.66, including a record-breaking 171-run knock in Dominica and a gritty half-century. His outstanding performance made him the highest run-scorer across three innings.
Although Jaiswal won't be part of India's squad for the upcoming three-match ODI series against the West Indies, starting today, he will be eager to display his skills in the subsequent T20I series.
Having been selected for the Asian Games 2023, Jaiswal's inclusion suggests that the Ajit Agarkar-led team might prioritize his participation in the tournament over the ICC ODI World Cup, considering the events' overlapping schedule.
Now, the southpaw has a golden opportunity to establish himself in white-ball cricket too. A strong showing in the T20I series against the West Indies could secure his spot in India's T20I team for the long run.
The much-anticipated five-match T20I series between India and West Indies is scheduled to commence on August 3 at the Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad. As Jaiswal gears up for this exciting challenge, fans are eagerly waiting to witness his outstanding skills in the shortest format of the game.
