Yashasvi Jaiswal Stats: When Team India’s batting looked scattered against Bangladesh today, Yashasvi Jaiswal took charge. He was also successful in completing his half-century. It is another matter that he was expected to complete his century, but it did not happen. Meanwhile, Jaiswal narrowly missed out on overtaking Pakistan Test team captain Shan Masood and Imam ul Haq. However, soon he will overtake both of them in one go, there should not be much tension in this.
After Rohit Sharma, Gill and Kohli were out, Jaiswal took charge
He came to the field to open with captain Rohit Sharma. It was expected that like before, both the batsmen would give a good start to the Indian team, but before the team could score more, Rohit Sharma soon returned to the pavilion. Rohit Sharma was able to score only 6 runs. Then the team’s score was only 14 runs. After this, Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli also got out cheaply. However, Yashasvi Jaiswal kept the front from one end. He worked to take the team towards a respectable score along with Rishabh Pant. Meanwhile, Yashasvi Jaiswal also completed his half-century. He was about to leave Shan Masood and Imam ul Haq behind when he became the victim of Nahid Rana on a score of 56. With this, his innings came to an end.
This match is being played under the ICC World Test Championship
Now let us tell you what is the matter in which Jaiswal missed to overtake Imam ul Haq and Shan Masood. Actually, this Test series being played between India and Bangladesh is a part of the World Test Championship. In this, Jaiswal has so far scored 1084 runs by playing 17 innings of 10 matches. Jaiswal is far behind in the overall list, if we talk about the cycle being played between the years 2021 to 2025, then he is at number two after Joe Root.
Now Jaiswal will have to wait a bit
If we talk about the history of the World Test Championship, Jaiswal has scored only 1084 runs there too. Pakistan’s Imam ul Haq has scored 1085 runs in 27 innings of 14 matches and Shan Masood has scored 1090 runs in 36 innings of 20 matches so far. That is, if Jaiswal had scored seven more runs from here, then both these batsmen would have been behind him. But now he will have to wait for the second innings of this match. Talking about the overall list, Jaiswal is currently at number 50 there. But the way he is scoring runs, he is likely to go even further soon.
