Yashasvi Jaiswal’s Sledge Lightens Up the Field
Australia’s spin bowler Nathan Lyon has recently shared a humorous exchange during the first Test match against India, where young opener Yashasvi Jaiswal brought laughter to the field with his cheeky jibe. Lyon revealed, ‘You’re a legend, but you’re old,’ highlighting Jaiswal’s playful banter that reflects the spirit of friendly rivalry.
In his response, Lyon took it in stride, saying, ‘Appreciate that, mate, but I don’t feel that old.’ This playful interaction shows the camaraderie and mutual respect shared among players despite competitive tensions.
Moreover, Jaiswal had also made headlines for sledging Australian pacer Mitchell Starc, telling him, ‘You are bowling too slow.’ However, Starc later remarked that he didn’t hear the comment and maintained, ‘I just sort of get on with it.’
The banter between these players showcases the lighter side of cricket amid high-stakes challenges. The second Test is set to take place this Friday at the Adelaide Oval, where fans can expect not only thrilling cricket but hopefully more light-hearted exchanges on the field.
