Yashasvi Jaiswal
Last year was also amazing for the Indian team’s explosive batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal. Although the performance of his team Rajasthan Royals was disappointing, this young batsman had scored more than 600 runs. Yashasvi played 14 matches in IPL 2023, in which he scored 625 runs. During this period his strike rate was 163.61 and batting average was 48.07.
Last year, an excellent century was also scored with the bat of Yashasvi Jaiswal . However, this season Yashasvi Jaiswal is batting in his top form. Rajasthan Royals fans would like Yashasvi Jaiswal’s form to continue like this and help Rajasthan Royals win the second title after 2008.
