BGT: X Users Brutally Trolls Yashasvi Jaiswal As Mitchell Starc Gets Him Again Cheaply

The Border-Gavaskar Trophy has always been a series filled with intense cricketing battles, but the third Test at the Gabba added another chapter to the ongoing saga between Yashasvi Jaiswal and Mitchell Starc. The young Indian opener, who had previously shown his mettle by scoring a brilliant 161 in Perth, found himself at the receiving end of Starc’s prowess once again, this time managing only 4 runs before being caught by Mitchell Marsh.

The incident reignited the memory of Jaiswal’s audacious banter in the first Test where, after defending a delivery from Starc, he had said, “It’s coming too slow.” This comment, made with a cheeky smile, had gone viral, adding a layer of humor and rivalry to their confrontations. However, the tables turned dramatically in the subsequent matches. In the second Test in Adelaide, Yashasvi Jaiswal was dismissed for a golden duck in the first innings and managed only 24 in the second, both times falling to Starc. Now, at the Gabba, history seemed to repeat itself in a way that left fans on X with plenty of ammunition for trolling.

With India trailing by a daunting 418 runs and their score at a precarious 27/3, the pressure was palpable. Jaiswal’s dismissal was not just a setback for the team but also a moment that sparked a flurry of reactions across social media. Fans, quick to remember the “coming too slow” jibe, took to X with a mix of humor, sarcasm, and outright trolling. Posts ranged from memes juxtaposing Jaiswal’s confident banter with his recent scores to witty one-liners about Starc’s pace being anything but slow when it mattered.

The narrative was clear: Jaiswal, who had shown such promise and confidence against one of the world’s best pacers, was now being served a slice of humble pie. Each dismissal by Starc was seen not just as a cricketing moment but as a continuation of a personal duel. The banter had set the stage for what many now saw as a saga of redemption or revenge, depending on which side of the rivalry one stood.

X users, in their characteristic style, did not hold back. Some posts humorously suggested that Yashasvi Jaiswal might need to reconsider his sledging tactics, while others playfully questioned the pace of Starc’s deliveries, mocking Jaiswal’s earlier comment. The tone was mostly light-hearted, but there was an underlying acknowledgment of the fierce competition and respect between two athletes at the peak of their game.

For Yashasvi Jaiswal, this Test match has been a lesson in the unpredictability of cricket, where one’s words can come back to haunt in the form of a swinging delivery or a well-placed catch. However, the young batsman’s journey is far from over. His talent, resilience, and the fact that he has already shown he can score big in this series suggest that this is but a chapter in his cricketing story.

As India struggles to claw back into the game, the focus isn’t just on the scoreboard but also on how players like Yashasvi Jaiswal respond to such setbacks. Cricket, after all, is as much about bouncing back as it is about making bold statements, both with the bat and with words. The trolling on X might be harsh, but it also reflects the passion and engagement of fans with the sport, eagerly awaiting Jaiswal’s next move in this high-stakes series.
