Former India captain Ajinkya Rahane has expressed confidence in the capabilities of Yashsvi Jaiswal, the opener Yashsvi Jaiswal, ahead of India’s five -match Test series in England, which begins with Headingley on Friday. It comes a month after rumors of rift between Mumbai teammates during the last Ranji Trophy season.Since facing the West Indies, it was not played for India in two years, shared his ideas about the upcoming series and major players through his YouTube channel.“Personally, I am really eager to see Yashsavi Jaiswal well because opening batting in England is really important. He has a game for it – he can control one end and can also go on an attack when needed. So I am actually eager to see Jaswal performance in England.”The April reports suggested a decline between Jaiswal and Rahane after the Mumbai defeat to Jammu and Kashmir in the Ranji Trophy. Jaiswal has been India’s first choice opener since his Test debut in Caribbean in July 2023.
Rahane also emphasized the importance of the pace bowling pair in the series. “I also want to see Mohammad Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah well, because as senior campaigners, they have the responsibility to lead the attack and choose wickets for the team.”“We all know that Bumrah is an excellent bowler and a proven wicket -taking, but I want to see him that additional responsibility and help the team in challenging circumstances, because winning a test series in England is always very special.”Quiz: Who is that IPL player?India’s testing success in England with only three series of winning in 1971, 1986 and 2007 has been rare, as bilateral busyness started in 1932.Shubman Gill will captain the Indian team in this series, and Rahane shared his views on the new role of the young leader. “I think this is going to be a challenging task for Shubman because in Test cricket I always believe that you have to be active as a captain. I am sure Shubman will do well, but it will take time because it will take time because captaining T20 and Odis is completely different.”
“In the test format, sometimes you have to be one or two steps ahead of your opponents, talk to your bowlers, and plan things with them. Therefore, this is going to be a challenging task for him, but I am sure that he will do well with both a captain and a batsman.”Rahen, who led India to win a memorable Test series in Australia in 2020-21, believes that the current team has the ability to succeed in English conditions.
