Rajasthan Royals’ opening batter Yashasvi Jaiswal made the 1000th match of the Indian Premier League memorable as he continued his purple patch in the ongoing season. Jaiswal played his career-best knock as he smashed his maiden century in the tournament.
Jaiswal, who walked out to open the innings with Jos Buttler, attacked the Mumbai Indians bowlers to all the corners of the ground from the word go. He rained fours and sixes at the iconic Wankhede Stadium and lit up the whole environment.
Yashasvi Jaiswal brought up his hundred in 53 balls to help his side post 212 for 7 in the first innings against Mumbai Indians in the 1000th match of the IPL. He was eventually dismissed after playing a stellar knock of 124 runs off 62 balls. His blistering knock was laced with 14 fours and 8 sixes.

Jaiswal displayed some outstanding shots during his knock. He was soo good during his knock that he made a mockery of returning Jofra Archer. Jaiswal took two off Archer’s first delivery before punishing his second. The young RR opener maneuvered a short ball behind square into the leg side, using the angle of the ball to generate immense power. The ball traveled 94-metres and went out of the Wankhede Stadium, between two stands.
