Yashasvi Jaiswal. The debutant was out for 1 in the first over while Shubman Gill was dismissed soon after for 6. India are playing a five-bowler, six-batter combination in this series, meaning that all-rounders like Axar Patel are batting at number 7, while the need for a lower-order batsman is sorely felt.
However, India may soon have a better team combination with youngsters such as Yashasvi Jaiswal and Tilak Varma who, according to bowling coach Paras Mhambrey, are adept at bowling. "When you have someone who can chip in, it is nice. I have seen Tilak and Yashasvi bowl since U19 days.
They are capable of being good bowlers. They can work on it at this level. When you got options like these, it is nice to have them.
We will see them bowl soon hopefully, we are working on it. It will take time. Soon, we will see them bowling an over at least," Paras Mhambrey was quoted as saying by ANI.
