NEW DELHI: Former Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag praised the promising talent Yashasvi Jaiswal for drawing inspiration from the legendary Virat Kohli's approach in his quest to transform half-centuries into centuries.
Yashasvi, a skilled left-handed batsman, currently holds the impressive third position in the Orange Cap leaderboard.
"Yashasvi Jaiswal is a future star. He's learnt the art of converting 50s into 100s from Virat Kohli. Several batters throw their wickets after scoring 13-ball 50 but Yashasvi looks to build on. He's got that temperament to play big knocks," Virender Sehwag told Star Sports.
Yashasvi has scored 575 runs in 13 matches at an average of 47.92, including one century and four fifties under his belt.
Yashasvi is just behing RCB's Faf du Plessis (702 runs) and GT's Shubman Gill (576 runs) in the most run getters tally.
