Yashasvi Jaiswal in Test format:

Jaiswal has demonstrated himself to be a force which is to be reckoned with by examining his form during the recent Test series. It must not be overlooked that Jaiswal scores above 40 on average against Australia and above 60 against England.

Over the past few years, several things have changed in the Test team. But Yashasvi Jaiswal, being the classic opener, has remained permanent. With Jaiswal sealing his spot at the opening position, he is also eyeing to play in the other formats.

2. Jaiswal vs Other Youngsters

Jaiswal has also eyed his place in the T20I team as an opener. But currently, that spot is being held by two youngsters, Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma. Jaiswal has remained a crucial part of the Indian team in the T20I format at a time. But it has been months since he last played in this format for the team.

This further allowed him to focus more on the Test format and improve his performances in the same. Shubman Gill, India's Test captain, holds just two more centuries than Jaiswal. But it should also be noted that he has played 12 more games as compared to he has. It won't shock the fans if Jaiswal overtakes Gill in terms of Test centuries in no time.
