New Delhi. Fans were eager to see the performance of the men’s cricket team in the Asian Games. But now this wait is over. India won the toss and decided to bat in the quarterfinal against Nepal. Young batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal and captain Ruturaj Gaikwad came out to bat from India’s side. Gaikwad departed after scoring just 25 runs while Tilak Verma also did not succeed in crossing the double figures. But Yashasvi (yashasvi-) Jaiswal was seen continuously unraveling the threads of Nepal from one end.
Yashasvi Jaiswal has created ruckus in almost every match from IPL to Team India. When he made his Test debut for Team India, he made many records one after the other. At the same time, when it came to T20, the young batsman made headlines by playing strong innings. Now even in the Asian Games against Nepal, Jaiswal has proved to be Team India’s troubleshooter. Yashasvi completed his half-century in style in just 22 balls.
Saved India’s shame by scoring a century.
Barring Yashasvi Jaiswal, Team India’s top order looked completely collapsed. The young batsman single-handedly saved the honor of Team India. Apart from Gaikwad, Tilak, Jitesh also could not cross the double figure. From the other end, Yashasvi’s bat was seen raining runs. The young batsman completed his century by hitting 8 fours and 7 skyscraper sixes in just 48 balls. Due to Yashasvi’s explosive batting, Nepal team was seen on the back foot.
Nepal’s bowlers performed amazingly in this match. Deependra Singh took 2 wickets for the team. First he let Captain Gaikwad go cheaply. After this, Jaiswal became his victim as soon as he completed his century, after which the team heaved a sigh of relief. Apart from Deependra, Sandeep Lamichhane and Sompal Kami also got 1 wicket each.
