The young batsman from Mumbai was roped in by Rajasthan Royals for ₹2.4 crores during the 2020 IPL Auction. The 18-year-old Yashasvi Jaiswal is touted as the next big thing in Indian cricket after he became the youngest player to smash a double hundred in List A cricket at just 17 years of age in 2019.

Initially, he first rose to fame in 2015 when he scored a record-breaking 319 not out and took 13/99 in a Giles Shield match. Later this record was recognized by the Limca Book Of Records.

He then continued his sublime form in the 2019 U19 World Cup where he scored 400 runs at an average of 133 in 6 matches ultimately becoming the highest run-scorer of the prestigious youth league.

For Rajasthan Royals, Yashasvi Jaiswal can be used an opener along with Jos Buttler, who could provide the Jaipur based franchise with the much-needed flying starts they’ve been lacking since years.
