Mumbai captain Siddhesh Lad said that Jaiswal can be seen keeping wickets for Mumbai in Ranji Trophy. Apart from this, in future he can also play the role of wicketkeeper-batsman for the Indian team.
Tezzbuzz Desk– Yashasvi Jaiswal is currently an important part of the Indian Test team, but he is not able to find a place in the T20 team.

In such a situation, to increase his career options, Jaiswal has started practicing wicketkeeping.
Mumbai captain Siddhesh Lad told the media that Yashasvi Jaiswal is keeping wickets during practice. He said that Jaiswal is developing his wicketkeeping skills and in the coming times he can be seen keeping wickets for Mumbai and India.
Actually, the role of wicketkeeper-batsmen is very important in the Indian team. Players like Ishan Kishan, Rishabh Pant, Dhruv Jurel and KL Rahul perform the responsibility of batting along with wicketkeeping. In such a situation, Yashasvi Jaiswal is also trying to increase his options in the team by developing additional skills of wicketkeeping along with his batting.
Yashasvi Jaiswal has an excellent record in first class cricket. He can play for Mumbai in the upcoming Ranji Trophy match. This match will also be an important preparation opportunity for them before the New Zealand tour.

After the first match of Ranji Trophy, Jaiswal will go on New Zealand tour, where he will also play for India A before the Test series.
