After the match, Jaiswal said it was exciting to watch Vaibhav take on Bumrah, who he called one of the legends of the game. He also said that Vaibhav’s attacking start helped ease the pressure on him.

“I think first ball he hit for six and I was just like, just keep playing your shots because of course Bumrah bhai is one of the legends, so if he is scoring him it is amazing and also other bowlers we can take them down, so it was quite good for him to go and play good shots. Especially with that, it also puts off me with a lot pressure, so I can also plan to take on someone else,” Jaiswal told reporters after the match.

Jaiswal, who remained unbeaten on 77, added that he enjoys batting with Vaibhav. He said both of them keep encouraging each other and try to stay positive at the crease.
