Team India’s promising batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal continued his brilliant form in the ongoing Test series against England. The aggressive batter scored yet another century in the ongoing third Test against the visitors at the Saurashtra Cricket Association Stadium in Rajkot.

Meanwhile, England’s Ben Duckett called Jaiswal a ‘superstar in the making’. However, in a bizarre statement, he said that his side deserves credit for inspiring players in the opposition camp to bat aggressively in Test cricket.

“When you see players from the opposition playing like that, it almost feels like we should take some credit that they are playing differently than how other people play Test cricket,” said Duckett.

“We saw it a bit in the summer and it’s quite exciting to see other players and other teams are also playing that aggressive style of cricket. He looks like a superstar in the making. Unfortunately he is in some very good form at the moment. He is due a couple of good ones,” he added.

Notably, the diminutive English opener scored 153 off 151 balls with 23 fours and two sixes in the first innings of the visiting team.
