Yashasvi Jaiswal - (Source:@ScreenGrab/X.com)
In the ongoing pink-ball warm-up match between India and Australia PM XI, the visitors are dominating the hosts as the Rohit Sharma-led side restricted PM XI to just 240 runs. Harshit Rana was the pick of the bowler with his four wicket-haul, while Sam Konstas smashed a century.
India will play a pink-ball Test against Australia on December 6 at Adelaide Oval. The last time India played in Adelaide was an embarrassing outing as they collapsed for the infamous 36 runs. Nonetheless, Yashasvi Jaiswal, who is on his first tour to Australia, has brushed aside the ghosts of 36-all out and is on a rampage mode.
Notably, at the time of writing this article, India openers Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul have stitched a 61-run stand, while Jaiswal is unbeaten on 35 (48), which featured seven fours. Talking about boundaries, he took on Jack Nisbet and whacked him for two back-to-back boundaries.

The fours came in a scratchy way, but it was enough for Jaiswal to shift gears. However, the rookie Australian didn't back down and tested Jaiswal with a sharp bouncer that left the southpaw baffled.
Further, looks were exchanged and a few words were also thrown at each other before Nisbet resumed bowling. Here is the incident.

Notably, Jaiswal stunned the Aussies in the first Test when he whacked 161 runs in the second innings, helping India put a big total on the board and beat Australia to go 1-0 up in the five-match series.
At the time of writing this article, India are 68/0, with KL Rahul too going well and batting unbeaten on 24 (41), with four boundaries to his name.
