Tejasvi Jaiswal, elder brother of Indian cricketer Yashasvi Jaiswal, scored his maiden half-century for Tripura on Day 3 of their 2024-25 Ranji Trophy match against Baroda on Friday, November 8, at the Maharaja Bir Bikram College Stadium in Agartala.

Making his debut season in the Ranji Trophy, Tejasvi batted at No. 3 and shared a solid 110-run stand with opener Jiwanjot Singh (94) for the second wicket. The 27-year-old left-hander hit 82 runs off 159 balls, including 12 fours and a six, marking his first-ever first-class fifty.
