Jaiswal came into controversy

Let us tell you that Yashasvi Jaiswal had not played the last Ranji Trophy match for Mumbai. During this match, news came that Mumbai Cricket Association was angry with him. There were reports that this player is not playing the match of his own free will. He plays matches only when he feels like it. However, there was also news that Yashasvi Jaiswal was not completely fit. He was advised rest by the doctors. Yashasvi Jaiswal's health deteriorated during a match, after which he had to be taken to the hospital. However, now Jaiswal is also fit and has returned to the Mumbai team. Now it remains to be seen what wonders he shows against Karnataka in the knock out match.

Jaiswal has scored 223 runs in one match

Jaiswal has played only one match in the current season of Ranji Trophy. He had scored 223 runs in that match. This player had scored a century in the first innings and a half-century in the second innings. Now similar performance will be expected from him in the knock out match also.
