Major mistake from Yashasvi Jaiswal (Photo- Gareth Copley/Getty Images)
In the first Test against England, Yashasvi Jaiswal definitely scored a brilliant century but left no stone unturned to perform poorly on the fielding front. This young player left not one, not two, not three but four catches in the Leeds Test. Yashasvi Jaiswal also took an unwanted record with this. Not only this, due to such poor fielding, Yashasvi also had to face Mohammad Siraj’s anger. He also had to bear a lot of trolling on social media. Let us tell you what was the mistake with Jaiswal.
Yashasvi Jaiswal’s blunder
Yashasvi Jaiswal dripped three catches in the first innings, but in the second innings, this player left the catch of a player who caused a lot of damage to Team India. When Ben Docket was on 97 runs in the second innings, Yashasvi Jaiswal dripped his easy catch off Siraj’s ball. Jaiswal was disappointed after dripping such a catch, but Mohammad Siraj looked very angry. He started shouting at Jaiswal from the crease itself.
Demand to exclude Yashasvi Jaiswal
After the poor fielding of Yashasvi Jaiswal, he was trolled fiercely on social media. A fan even wrote that Team India should also drop the player for not only bad batting and bowling but also for bad fielding. Let us tell you that Yashasvi Jaiswal left a total of four catches in this match. Along with this, he equaled the Indian record of leaving the most catches in a Test match as a fielder.
Yashasvi jaiswal should be dropped for the next game. Its time players are help accountable for Missed Catches and Misfields. After all, whats the point of scoring runs in Test Cricket If We Cant Take Wickets?

There is a saying in cricket that catch a catch and win the match, Team India did not do this. In the Leeds Test, Team India has dripped a total of five catches, in which a catch has also been released from Ravindra Jadeja. On the basis of these occasions, England allowed India to take only 6 runs in the first innings. All these batsmen got life and played big innings. The Pope even scored a century. If Team India is to defeat England at his house, then it will have to pay attention to fielding besides batting and bowling.
