As the cricket world is buzzing with the ongoing IPL, a bold move by Yashasvi Jaiswal has shaken the cricket world. Parting ways with the Mumbai domestic team, Jaiswal joined Goa and is set to represent the state from the upcoming domestic season.

Jaiswal Opens Up On His Big Career Move

Yashasvi Jaiswal’s cricketing journey from Mumbai streets to the Indian side is nothing short of a dream. In his inspiring journey, Mumbai’s domestic side played a crucial role. From presenting the side as a member of the U-19 side to bursting onto the scene with a thrilling double hundred in the Vijay Hazare Trophy, Jaiswal’s career took a dreamy turn from there.

Now, Yashasvi is set to start a new chapter with Goa as he is set to represent the state in the upcoming domestic season. Embracing this bold move, he expressed heartfelt gratitude to Mumbai, his team, and the MCA for shaping his journey.

“It was a very tough decision for me. Whatever I am today is because of Mumbai. The city has made me who I am, and all my life, I will be indebted to the MCA.” Jaiswal said.

Jaiswal Shares His Thoughts On The Leadership Role

Following Arjun Tendulkar and Siddhesh Lad’s footsteps, Jaiswal’s move to Goa brings out a fresh opportunity for him, as the team has offered a leadership role. That move can play a significant role in his career. As he embarks on this fresh journey, he shares his thoughts.

“Goa has thrown me a new opportunity, and it has offered me a leadership role. My first goal will be to do well for India and whenever I’m not on national duty, I will be playing for Goa and try to make them go deep into the tournament. This was an (important) opportunity which came my way and I just took it.” he said.

As he is set to enter a new chapter of his cricketing career, Jaiswal asked Mumbai Cricket Association to issue an NOC to him for representing Goa for the upcoming domestic season.
