What makes Yashasvi Jaiswal excel in Australia? Sanjay Manjrekar dissects technique, offers advice to Virat Kohli
Live MintYashasvi Jaiswal has announced his arrival in Australia with a brilliant 161 run knock in the second innings of ongoing India vs Australia Test match in Perth. Sanjay Manjrekar dissects Yashasvi Jaiswal's technique: Former Indian cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar dissected Yashasvi Jaiswal's technique to explain why the left hander is enjoying success in Australia while other Indian batters falter. While speaking to Star Sports, Manjrekar said, "The square cut- he plays it a little later, which may not be ideal, but the back foot punch is something to love now in both those shots that you see there guys well, the new King likes to be on the back foot, unlike the reigning king who wants to be on the front foot, and as a result of that, he got 64% of the runs behind square. And that's something I think Virat Kohli might just want to have a look at because that's an area where he doesn't look to score off at all," Also Read | BGT 2025: Rohit Sharma leaves for Australia ahead of 2nd Test at Adelaide Oval
