Yashasvi Jaiswal Prepares for Second Season Challenges with Bumrah's Help

Yashasvi Jaiswal is gearing up for his second season in international cricket, facing high expectations and stronger opposition analysis. Practicing against top-tier bowler Jasprit Bumrah, Jaiswal aims to overcome early struggles and focus on improving his form ahead of the opening Test against Bangladesh and the upcoming series in Australia.

Yashasvi Jaiswal is gearing up for his pivotal second season in international cricket, where sky-high expectations and intense opposition analysis await. This season's challenge involves overcoming early struggles in the nets, notably against India's premier fast bowler, Jasprit Bumrah.

During Monday's net session, Bumrah repeatedly outclassed the young Mumbai batsman, unsettling his off-stump and leaving Jaiswal visibly shaken. Jaiswal, who has scored over 1000 runs in his first nine Tests, is determined to refine his skills ahead of the opening Test against Bangladesh, starting on September 19.

Despite a tough start in the Duleep Trophy and facing issues with pace, bounce, and swing, Jaiswal is set on overcoming these hurdles. Valuable guidance from Virat Kohli and rigorous practice sessions, including focusing on leaving deliveries and improving shot selection, highlight his intense preparation for a season that promises intense international competition.
