He Had Just One Wish – Yashasvi Jaiswal Brother
Following his remarkable achievements in international cricket, Yashasvi Jaiswal fulfilled his long-held dream of gifting his family a luxurious new home in Mumbai. The batter was determined to provide his family with a comfortable and permanent residence, choosing not to return to their previous home.
“He kept telling us, ‘Please shift soon, I don’t want to stay in this house’. Even during the Test match, he would ask about our shifting plans,” Yashasvi’s brother Tejsvi told Indian Express.
“All his life, he had just one wish, to have his own house. You know how he has come up, he understands the importance of a roof over his head, especially in Mumbai,” he added.
