Yashasvi Jaiswal carried out his first practice after reaching Perth. Along with him, other players like KL Rahul, Shubman Gill also practiced batting in the nets. During this practice, Yashasvi Jaiswal played a shot which not only crossed the nets but also crossed the ground. That shot by Yashasvi stopped everyone’s breath for a second. This is because a big incident could have happened on that shot of his in Perth.
First test from 22nd November, Yashasvi busy in preparations
The first Test match between India and Australia is to be played from 22nd November at Optus Stadium in Perth. Yashasvi Jaiswal was preparing for this match with the rest of his team mates. During that time, he played that shot on which the incident could have happened in Perth but fortunately it did not happen.
The ball crossed the field and fell near the school, incident averted!
Now let us know what happened on that shot of Yashasvi Jaiswal. That sharp shot from the bat of the Indian opener first crossed the nets of Perth’s Academy Ground. Then she crossed the field and fell straight on the road near a school. The place where the ball fell was on a running road. This means that vehicles run on it and people also walk on it. But, the good thing is that when the ball fell, there were neither people nor vehicles on the road. There was a holiday in school also a short time ago. In such a situation, that scene was no less than averting an incident. Because if there was a crowd there when the ball fell on the road, anything could have happened.
Jaiswal just whacked it over the nets and onto the adjacent road. Luckily no cars or pedestrians around – the nearby school has just finished for the day pic.twitter.com/w8rt8HHVWI

Expectations from Yashasvi in Australia
Team India has high expectations from Yashasvi Jaiswal on the Australia tour. He is in tremendous form this year. He has scored more runs than other batsmen. It is a different matter that Yashasvi does not have the experience of playing in Australia but he is full of enthusiasm. The responsibility of giving a better start to Team India will be on the shoulders of Yashasvi and in this respect his role becomes important for the team.
