‘Perfect in practice’: Michael Vaughan’s brutal excavations at Yashasvi Jaiswal. Ravi Shastri is perplexed

It seemed that Yashasvi Jaiswal developed a counteraction plan Mitchell Starknew threat to the ball. However, just two balls into India’s first innings in the ongoing third Test against Australia, Starc caught Jaiswal at square leg. After India bowled out Australia for 445 early in the third day’s session, Jaiswal bowled before the start of India’s innings. He bowled one towards the Australian team, but the ball hit the leg of a Cricket Australia cameraman.

After being sacked, the former England captain Michael Vaughn launched a crafty attack on Jaiswal after the youngster failed to repeat his shot attempts during the match.

“Five minutes before Jaiswal came out, this is the shot he was practicing: a shot through mid-wicket, a wonderful shot and good balance. And then you get into the match and it’s the same shot, but it goes up in the air, just snaps it. the pressure of the game, in practice everything is perfect,” Vaughn said on air.

Former Head Coach of Team India Ravi Shastri also expressed disbelief over the dismissal, highlighting how Jaiswal managed to find the only fielder in the region despite having enough space to fill the gap.

“Can you imagine that there will be a catch here? A man right in front of square, acres of space on the side and Jaiswal hits it straight to the fielder,” Shastri noted.
