[Watch] Yashasvi Jaiswal Slams Jadeja For an Unbelievable Maximum; Stuns Dhoni & CSK Fielders
Jaipur has been witnessing the Yashasvi Jaiswal show as the left-handed opener is taking the Chennai bowlers to the cleaners on Thursday. During his ongoing blistering knock, Jaiswal has slammed eigth boundaries and four maximums; however, one of those sixers was a class-apart hit.
The Rajasthan opener went berserk against CSK's only successful bowler in the game, Ravindra Jadeja, smashing for a reverse sweep for a maximum over deep backward point, which landed 69 metres away.
The hit by the southpaw even made the opposition captain MS Dhoni and broadcast commentators - Murali Kartik and Kevin Pietersen - his admirers.
Thanks to Jaiswal getting off the mark rapidly, RR put on a solid opening stand of 86 against the table-toppers, Chennai, before Jos Buttler lost his breath on 27 off 21 balls.
And, during his gung-ho innings, the 21-year-old went behind each and every Chennai bowler, painting beautiful panoramas at Jaipur's canva with his artistic brush.
The Royals captain Sanju Samson also could unite for that long as he got dismissed on 17 before Jaiswal went back in the hut in the same over to Tushar Deshpande.
At the time of writing, Rajasthan are at 132-3 after 14.0 overs, with Shimron Hetymer and Dhruv Jurel in the middle.
