India's Yashasvi Jaiswal celebrates after taking the catch of Bangladesh's Zakir Hasan on the third day of the first Test. Veteran India spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, who has witnessed Jaiswal's growth from close quarters - IPL to the Indian team, shared his opinion on the young opening batter. Jaiswal also impressed many with his fielding as he grabbed some crucial catches, including a stunning low catch at the slip of Zakir Hasan in second innings during the Chennai Test. Yashasvi Jaiswal himself volunteers and stands up The 22-year-old has also impressed Ashwin with his work in the slip, as the senior spinner feels that Jaiswal took no time to replace KL Rahul in the second slip.
