NEW DELHI: As he concentrates on red-ball cricket at the current Duleep Trophy and gets ready for the next two-Test series against Bangladesh, India’s Yashasvi Jaiswal has placed a strong emphasis on consistency.
A vital member of India’s red-ball team, the 22-year-old struck 30 runs off 50 balls for India ‘B’ during their Duleep Trophy match against India ‘A’ on Thursday in Bengaluru.
“It’s a great opportunity whenever we have the chance to play the Duleep or Ranji Trophy. I’m really looking forward to that, and I hope I’ll enjoy my game. I’ll try my best,” he told JioCinema, as per PTI.
With nine Test matches under his belt since his debut and looking forward to India’s World Test Championship campaign, Jaiswal said, “Every match is important because of the World Test Championship. You have to make sure you give your best as every win counts.
“Any opportunity to play for India is incredible, and representing the country is the biggest motivation that I have.”
“I have worked hard to keep up my form and continue to do so to ensure I maintain it. The more consistent I stay with my practice and preparation, my results will improve. I don’t overthink, I just need to prepare well and keep improving myself as a player. The more I repeat these steps, the better I’ll get.”
During the 2024-25 home season, India will host Bangladesh, New Zealand, and England. The series against Bangladesh is scheduled to begin on September 19.
“I think they’ve been playing well. It’ll be fun to match up with them. It’s fun to play Test matches regardless. I’m really looking forward to that,” Jaiswal said.
