Rajasthan Royals (RR) opener Yashasvi Jaiswal has taken his IPL 2023 season to the next level by scoring the fastest fifty in the history of the tournament against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Edan Gardens on Thursday.Jaiswal got his half-century off just 13 balls, breaking KL Rahul and Pat Cummins' joint-record of 14 deliveries. The southpaw was just too good in the powerplay and virtually ended KKR's hopes of defending the target inside the first two overs of the chase.Fans on Twitter were thrilled to see Yashasvi Jaiswal at his belligerent best. They were mesmerized with the shots that he played and here are some of the reactions:Mufaddal Vohra@mufaddal_vohraKing Kohli loving Yashasvi Jaiswal's masterclass.160681652King Kohli loving Yashasvi Jaiswal's masterclass. https://t.co/i6sR2GkIPcRajasthan Royals@rajasthanroyalsJaiswal in the first-over this IPL:5205296Jaiswal in the first-over this IPL: https://t.co/Fx9SSXM4YVMI Fans Army™@MIFansArmyThe 21 year old YJ creates history!Yashasvi Jaiswal has the fastest fifty in the history of the IPL in just 13 balls.38547The 21 year old YJ creates history!Yashasvi Jaiswal has the fastest fifty in the history of the IPL in just 13 balls. https://t.co/af0Hy1K2FGCricpedia.@_CricpediaYashasvi Jaiswal has come a long way & deserves the success he gets. #KKRvRR41Yashasvi Jaiswal has come a long way & deserves the success he gets. ❤ #KKRvRRhttps://t.co/GX0TB1otG2divz@koliesqueThe Greatest Youngster Yashasvi Jaiswal 🛐20741The Greatest Youngster Yashasvi Jaiswal ❤🐐🛐 https://t.co/AwWR84DUOHSwatKat💃@swatic12Bowlers to Yashasvi Jaiswal today #KKRvsRR119994Bowlers to Yashasvi Jaiswal today #KKRvsRR https://t.co/PgDreEIs7IIan Raphael Bishop@irbishiIt’s worth pointing out one more time that Yashasvi Jaiswal’s numbers in the other two formats is also outstanding.

However, that move didn't work at all as Jaiswal started his onslaught with 26 runs off the first over.Even Harshit Rana and Shardul Thakur were taken to the cleaners and the early wicket of Jos Buttler didn't make any difference to the Royals. The Knight Riders bowlers seemed absolutely helpless in front of Jaiswal's stroke making and later captain Sanju Samson also joined in the fun.The Royals are cruising towards a win and this would not only boost their morale but also their net run rate. KKR, meanwhile, have taken a massive hit to their hopes of playoffs qualification.Rajasthan Royals (Playing XI): Yashasvi Jaiswal, Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson (c/wk), Joe Root, Dhruv Jurel, Shimron Hetmyer, Ravichandran Ashwin, KM Asif, Sandeep Sharma, Trent Boult, Yuzvendra Chahal.Kolkata Knight Riders (Playing XI): Jason Roy, Rahmanullah Gurbaz (wk), Venkatesh Iyer, Nitish Rana (c), Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, Anukul Roy, Sunil Narine, Shardul Thakur, Harshit Rana, Varun Chakaravarthy.
