He should surely find a place in the white ball format immediately.
Considering his temperament I'm sure he will mature into being an asset for Red ball cricket as well.@BCCI should not waste time on this. — Asit Ahuja (@asitahuja) May 12, 2023

Sir please select him in Indian team. Now is the high time we should move forward from Rohit Sharma, K L Rahul and even Kohli. I support Kohli but we need to win this world cup and also T20 World Cup next year. — Sagar Chhetri (@SagarCh05523554) May 11, 2023

Happy to fulfill my dreams, says Jaiswal
Jaiswal attempted a six to finish the match and reach his second IPL hundred. However, he could only manage a boundary and ended up with 98. The 21-year-old was still very happy as he celebrated the team's win with as much excitement. Speaking about the knock, Jaiswal said that he believes in the process of training well, practicing hard, and does not think too much about the results. "It is not like everything I wanted happens, I prepare well and I trust in myself. I know the results will come. The winning shot was a great feeling, I wanted to finish the game and winning the game has been my motto. I'm blessed and grateful, I'm trying my best. (On whether he feels he missed out on a century) I think the net run rate was the only thing in our mind, me and Sanju were only talking about finishing the game quickly.," said Jaiswal.
On running out Jos Buttler early on in the innings, Jaiswal said that he tried to continue playing the shot and not overthink about the dismissal. "I think it happens in the game, it gives me responsibility to do even better. And Sanju bhai came and said to keep playing my game, and not think about that run out. I'm just grateful for a tournament like the IPL where youngsters like me can come and perform. This has been a great platform for players like me to fulfill my dreams," said Jaiswal.
