Yashasvi Jaiswal says after scoring a record-breaking century in his Test debut, “I’m pleased, but this is just the beginning.

Yashasvi Jaiswal, a teenage cricketer, has joined the rare group of players who have achieved a century on their Test debut thanks to an outstanding century against the West Indies. The cricketer looked amazing on Day 2 after finishing Day 1 unbeaten at 40*, and with that, he recorded his first century in international play. He played with excellent poise and tenacity in the middle, while the Windies bowlers for the majority of the day appeared to be completely lost.

Jaiswal said that he wants to dedicate this tremendous knock to his parents and that it is just the beginning because he has bigger goals in mind as he spoke about it in the meantime. Jaiswal will be trying to score his first double century as he is now batting at 143* and India are currently 162 runs ahead of the hosts owing to his innings.

For my family and me, it’s a very difficult situation. Thank you to everyone who has helped me in any way. The travel was very far. I wish to express my gratitude to all of you for your assistance. I want to dedicate this to my parents because they have made significant contributions. God be praised. I won’t say too much right now. The 21-year-old remarked in the video footage that the BCCI posted, “I’m happy; this is only a start; I’ve got a lot to do.

Yashasvi Jaiswal, who comes from a lowly family, worked extremely hard on the home circuit and rose to become one of Mumbai’s most reliable performers. Later, the Rajasthan Royals signed him for the Indian Premier League, but the cricket player failed to establish a reputation in the first few years. But in 2023, he excelled at cricket, scoring 625 runs in 14 games and being named the young player of the year.

Jaiswal received the chance to play in his first Test match as well as a call-up for the forthcoming five-match T20I series. The cricketer might quickly emerge as India’s next major star if he maintains his current form.
