PC: X

India National Cricket Team batter Yashasvi Jaiswal yet again played a match-winning innings for his team in Test cricket. He produced a sensational effort with the bat in the second game against the Bangladesh National Cricket Team, which took place at Green Park in Kanpur.

Yashasvi Jaiswal, who slammed a half-century in the first innings, made sure that he came up with another similar effort in the second innings. The opening batter in the chase made sure that he stayed there till the end and ensured that his team won the second game.

With India needing just three more runs, Yashasvi Jaiswal tried to go for a glory shot and finish the game for his team. The batter tried to hit the six but he couldn't connect and perished on the cusp of the win. He got out to Taijul Islam on the last ball of the 16th over.

Taijul Islam bowled a tossed delivery that was drifting across the middle from around the wicket. Yashasvi Jaiswal looked to swipe across the line but ended up miscuing it high in the air off the outside half. Shakib Al Hasan, who was at covers, took a safe catch to remove the batter.

As Jaiswal got while trying to hit a big six, the reaction of Virat Kohli went viral. The senior batter was seen laughing before giving the young batter a pat on the helmet as he walked back to the pavilion.

Jaiswal, who scored 72 runs in the first innings, batted aggressively yet again in the second innings and racked up another half-century. He looked in proper control of the shots that he played and made sure that he helped his team put one step past the finishing line.

Yashasvi Jaiswal ended with an innings of 51 runs off 45 balls and also slammed 8 fours and 1 six. He batted with a strike rate of around 115 as the India National Cricket Team completed the 7-wicket win and also won the series by the margin of 2-0.

On the other hand, Virat Kohli had a decent outing with the bat in the second Test. After failing to score runs with the bat in the first game, where he scored 6 and 17 in two innings, he made sure he came up with a vital effort for his team in both innings of the second game.

Virat Kohli scored 47 runs off 35 balls in the first innings, slamming 4 boundaries and 1 six in his innings. The batter made sure that he carried on the good form in the second innings and stayed there until the end and took his team to the win.

Virat Kohli scored an unbeaten 29 runs off 37 balls with the help of 4 boundaries. Him getting under his belt will be a massive boost for the India National Cricket Team, especially with the New Zealand Tests and Australia Test series around the corner.
