Yashasvi Jaiswal Domestic Career
When Jaiswal was just eleven years old, his kickstarted his cricketing journey. Jaiswal, who was born in Uttar Pradesh, arrived in Mumbai with big aspirations in his heart. But it wasn't just cricket that consumed his attention; he also had to work hard to make ends meet because his father, a Bhadohi store owner, struggled to provide for his two boys. Jaiswal sold pani puri in the evening and practised throughout the day before resting in a groundskeeper's tent.
Jaiswal first gained attention in 2015 when he made history by entering the Limca Book of Records with an all-around school cricket record of 319 not out and 13/99 in a Giles Shield match. After that, he was picked for the Mumbai under-16 team and the India under-19 team.
With India winning the 2018 ACC Under-19 Asia Cup, Jaiswal's reputation continued to rise, and he was named player of the tournament. After that, he kept showcasing his batting skills in the tri-series in England or the Youth Test against South Africa.
He first caught the interest of the country's media in 2019. Jaiswal became the youngest cricketer to make a double century in a Vijay Hazare Trophy game, when he hammered 203 off 154 balls for Mumbai against Jharkhand.
The then 17-year-old was the third to achieve the feat but it was his temperament and immense talent that caught the eye. Jaiswal finished with 564 runs from six innings which included 25 sixes and 49 boundaries at an average of over 112.

Yashasvi Jaiswal IPL Career
Consistent performances helped the left-handed opener earn the big bucks when the Rajasthan Royals purchased him for INR 2.4 crore in last December’s player auction. Now that Ajinkya Rahane has been traded to the Delhi Capitals, Jaiswal can stake his claim for the opener’s role. And, a good stint at IPL 2020 can indeed help him make his way into the India A squad and beyond.
Despite missing the opening game of the next season, he scored over 200 runs with a fifty against the Chennai Super Kings, who went on to win the title. RR was unable to make it to the playoffs in spite of this.
For Jaiswal in particular, the 2022 season was very different. After only scoring 25 runs in the first three games, he was benched for the following six.

In the following game, he scored his first fifty, also against CSK. RR fared exceptionally well that season, finishing second in the league. They made it to the playoffs, but the Gujarat Titans comfortably defeated them, and they were immediately knocked off.
Jaiswal himself was not brilliant, just scoring 3 runs. When RR played Royal Challengers Bangalore, they were put to the test once more, as Jaiswal managed just 21 runs. Jos Buttler did, however, produce an incredible century, and RR won the game easily by seven wickets. The whole RR batting order collapsed in the final vs GT, managing just 130 runs, with Jaiswal scoring 22.

He was the fourth of six children born to Bhupendra Jaiswal, a hardware shop owner, and Kanchan Jaiswal, a homemaker. He relocated to Mumbai when he was eleven years old in order to practise at Azad Maidan for cricket. In exchange for his labour, he was first placed in a dairy business, but the owner eventually had him evacuated since his practice schedule prevented him from working for a long stretch. In order to make ends meet, he sold pani puri and slept in a tent with the groundskeepers at the Maidan.
At the age of 11, Yashasvi decided to move to Mumbai to pursue his dream of playing for the Indian Cricket Team. His father did not stop him from leaving, as he was not able to feed his family of four, and their house did not have any space for another adult.
Yashasvi only had an uncle staying in Mumbai, whom he hardly knew. His uncle stayed in Worli, but he wasn’t able to accommodate him as his house was too small. Hence, he got him a job at a dairy where he was allowed to work and sleep.
Yashasvi used to attend school, and then practise cricket alone. Due to his tight schedule, he did not have any energy left at the end of the day, and he used to sleep when he was supposed to work. As a result, he was thrown out of the dairy as he only used to sleep.
It was after his admission to the club that he started to play regular cricket. He used to stay in the gardeners’ tent in the ground and sell fruits and pani-puri in the evening to make ends meet. He would often go out to lunch with his friends at the cricket club and would ask them to bear the expenses for him.
Once, while he was practising in the nets, the local coach, Jwala Singh, spotted him. Yashasvi soon moved to Singh’s place, who took care of him, provided him with everything, and trained him every day. He also encouraged Yashasvi to take part in competitions.
