Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal has opened up on Virat Kohli’s advice ahead of the Border-Gavaskar series opener against Australia at Perth. Jaiswal has been in good form in the recent past and he is going to hold the key at the top of the order.
Jaiswal scored 190 runs in three Test matches against the Kiwis at an average of 31.67. The left-hander has scored 1407 runs in 14 Test matches at an impressive average of 56.27 and he will look to continue the good show in the red-ball format.
On the other hand, it is well known that Virat Kohli has achieved all the success at the top level by working hard on his fitness and game over the years. Kohli’s advice to Jaiswal was simple – stay disciplined and focus on the process.
Speaking on BCCI.TV, Jaiswal said, “When I started playing senior cricket, I spoke to Virat paaji about how he manages himself. He has said that if you want to play all that cricket then you have to be disciplined in your daily routines and process so I have seen him do things day by day.”
“It motivates me a lot to put in all the work and do something and make a difference in my habits, which is important. It makes me better day by day. I have always believed in consistency in my work.”
Speaking on discussions on planning and strategy before a practice session, Jaiswal said there is an objective they look to achieve.
“Ekdam ready hoke jaana chaiye net me, koi na koi plan leke jaata hoon aur aise hi type ke wickets pe khelne waale hai. Humesha koi na koi purpose hota hai practice ke phele and recovery pe focus karta hoon ki accha soun, aur khaun practice sessions ke pehle. (I am going into the nets fully ready, with a plan that we will be playing on these types of wickets I always enter the practice with a purpose and focus on recovering before the practice sessions ensuring that I sleep well and eat well).”
The opening Test match between India and Australia will be played at Perth from November 22 onwards.
