IPL 2023: Former India Batter Hails Yashasvi Jaiswal After His Heroics Vs CSK
Jaiswal got the Player of the Match award as he scored 77 runs off 43 balls with eight fours and four sixes against CSK and helped his team win the game by 32 runs.
Rajasthan Royals’ young batter Yashasvi Jaiswal was the star with the bat as he played a terrific knock against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 match at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur. Post the game, former India player Suresh Raina heaped praise on Jaiswal and said his head position was great.
“His head position is great and as Robin (Uthappa) said, when he hit a reverse sweep, it stayed so still. He plays close to the body and what I like the most is that his head, whenever he drives the ball, is also very still. When it doesn’t move much, you can get a lot of power into your shot, your swing goes well,” Raina was quoted as saying in Jio Cinema.

“It’s very important when he hits his shots, especially his cover drive. He respects a good bowler and gives himself time. He knows how to build a game beyond the first six overs. The greatest hallmark of an opener is you attack from overs number 1 to 6 and from overs 7-11 you consolidate. Robin said it well, he’s a superstar of the IPL and will make the country proud in the future,” Raina added.
The Mumbai-based batter got out when the Royals were playing at 132 for the loss of three wickets in 13.5 overs. With this win, the Royals sealed the top spot in the points table. Jaiswal is the highest run-getter for RR in IPL 2023, having made 304 runs from eight matches at an average of 38.
