Former England cricketer Michael Vaughan praised India’s Yashasvi Jaiswal for his excellent performance on Day 3 of the ongoing third Test in Rajkot. Vaughan believes that Jaiswal has the potential to become a superstar in all formats and conditions.
Yashasvi Jaiswal Registered His 3rd Test Century

India had a great day in the Rajkot Test and it’s clear they’re in control of the game. Despite the setback of Ravichandran Ashwin’s absence due to a family emergency, India performed well. They bowled out England for 319 runs, taking a lead of 126 runs, and then excelled with the bat. A key factor in their dominance was the impressive performance of young batter Yashasvi Jaiswal, who played a stellar innings.
Yashasvi Jaiswal continued his impressive performance in Test cricket by scoring another century, putting India in a strong position. He started slowly but then played aggressively, dominating the game with his brilliant batting. Jaiswal reached his third Test century in 122 balls, earning applause from spectators. He accelerated after a slow start, putting England under pressure and helping India secure a lead of over 200 runs comfortably.
Yashasvi Jaiswal played flawlessly in his innings, scoring 104 runs off 133 balls, including 9 fours and 5 sixes. Unfortunately, he had to retire hurt and left the field. It’s anticipated that he will resume his innings tomorrow and build on his performance from where he left off.
Michael Vaughan Hailed Jaiswal As The ‘Next All-Format Superstar’

Vaughan described it as a fascinating day for India, suggesting that Ravichandran Ashwin’s absence seemed to have motivated the team. He also lauded Jaiswal for his performance, noting that he changed the dynamics of the game.
Michael Vaughan took to his social media and hailed Jasiwal as the next ‘all-format superstar’. He wrote:
“Another fascinating day play .. England for the wrong reasons & India for all the right reasons .. the loss of @ashwinravi99 seems to have galvanised the group .. And @ybj_19 is the next all format all condition superstar.”
