Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal had a forgettable outing on his birthday in IND vs SA 1st Test at Centurion on Thursday, Jaiswal, who turned 22 today, failed to capitalise on the second chance which he received early in the innings after Aiden Markram dropped his catch.
Jaiswal fell for 5 when pacer Nandre Burger delivered a quick bouncer, causing the ball to graze the edge of Jaiswal’s gloves before traveling behind to the wicketkeeper.
