I wanted to play session by session. When they were bowling well, I just wanted to get through that spell. However, I wanted to convert the loose balls, Jaiswal said.
“Rahul sir and Rohit Sharma kept giving me the confidence and told me to convert this into a big innings, and stay till the end,” said the youngster.
Asked about the nature of the pitch, Jaiswal said, “Initially, the wicket was damp and there was spin and bounce,” with a bit of seam.
