Ahead of the RR vs RCB IPL 2023 clash in Jaipur on Saturday, a video went viral where Virat Kohli and Yashasvi Jaiswal were spotted talking to each other. It seems Jaiswal was trying to read Kohli’s brain in order to perform well for his side Rajasthan, helping them to reach the playoffs of the IPL 2023. Talking about the game, It was a one-sided affair that the visitors won since Rajasthan registered a horrifying batting show at home, going all out for just 59 runs in 10.3 overs as RCB won the game by 112 runs.
Yashasvi too had a bad outing with the bat and he missed showcasing his talent in from of the RCB stalwart. However, in the previous game, the 21-year-old batter scored 98 runs and Kohli also praised him.
Nonetheless, Yashasvi managed to have an interaction with Kohli for a good long time. IPL shared a video where the two were spotted talking and captioned the post, “As special as it gets. πΌπ£ πͺπ£π’ππ¨π¨πππ‘π ππ£π©ππ§πππ©ππ€π£ ft. @imVkohli & @ybj_19.”
Last week, the talented RR batter played a match-winning knock of 98 against Kolkata Knight Riders at Eden Gardens. His knock even forced Kohli to laud him as the former India skipper put up an Instagram story and wrote, "Wow, this is some of the best batting I’ve seen in a while. What a talent, Yashasvi Jaiswal."
Yashasvi even broke the record for the fastest half-century in the history of the Indian Premier League. He reached the landmark in just 13 balls on Thursday. Even former India player Harbhajan Singh could not stop himself from applauding young Jaiswal.
“Yashasvi Jaiswal isn't just knocking at the doors of the Indian Cricket Team, he seems to be breaking it with his consistently good performances. He's carried his imperious form of domestic cricket into IPL. What a talent he is! The future of Indian Cricket is in good hands," Harbhajan said on Star Sports.
