Career Overview/ Highlight : Yashasvi Jaiswal IPL 2020 to 2024
Yashasvi Jaiswal, captain of the India U19 side in 2020, had an interesting rags-to-riches story. These were enough for Jaiswal to come into the IPL spotlight. And then, when the auction took place in 2020, he was picked up by the Rajasthan Royals for ₹2.4 crore.
He struggled to get going, accounting for just 40 runs in three games. However, RR management backed him and retained him for the next season, where he started to show some improvement. Jaiswal continued to open alongside Jos Buttler in 2022 as well.
The 2023 season was Jaiswal’s breakthrough season. The left-handed batter scored 625 runs that season, which also saw him rewrite the fastest fifty record in IPL. Since then, he has been retained at RR at a price of ₹4 crore.
