Indian cricketer Yashasvi Jaiswal had to be taken to a hospital after suffering from stomach cramps during the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy game between Mumbai and Rajasthan in Pune. It is learnt that the cramps intensified post the game, which is why he was rushed to the Aditya Birla Hospital where he was diagnosed with acute gastroenteritis. He was given an IV medication and diagnosed using an ultrasound and a CT scan. Jaiswal, it is learnt, has been advised by the doctors to follow medications and rest.
The young left-hander has a good few weeks with the bat, both for the Mumbai team and the Indian national team.
In a recent game of the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, while playing for Mumbai, he smashed a 48-ball century to help the Mumbai team to a four-wicket victory over the Haryana team in a high-scoring Super League B game in Pune. That knock from Jaiswal, in which he scored 101 off 50 balls, had helped Mumbai chase down Haryana’s 235-run target in just 17.3 overs.

At the start of the month, when Jaiswal was with the Indian national team, he had played a pivotal role in Indian team sealing the ODI series against South Africa. In the third and final ODI of the series at Visakhapatnam, Jaiswal had cracked an unbeaten century for India as they had defeated the visiting side. Jaiswal was only drafted into the ODI team because captain Shubman Gill was out injured. And Jaiswal made the most of his chances with a century.
But once Gill and vice captain Shreyas Iyer make a comeback to the team, the young left-hander will have to prove he really deserves to be part of the ODI team, where Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are still around. India coach Gautam Gambhir had some words of advice for Jaiswal about pacing an innings in ODIs.
“In one-day format, you need to know the template you want to play,” Gambhir was quoted as saying after India beat South Africa 2-1 following the nine wicket win. “When you come into white-ball cricket from red-ball cricket, you think you have to bat aggressively. But you don’t need to bat aggressively in one-day cricket, because you can split it into 30 overs and 20 overs,” he added of pacing the innings. If you play 30 overs like one-day cricket – and the quality that Jaiswal has, if he can bat till 30 overs – there is no doubt he will be close to a hundred. Even after that, you have 20 overs left, which you can look at as a T20 match. It is only about finding a template. This was just Jaiswal’s fourth game. The moment he figures out which tempo he needs to bat in one-day cricket, the sky is the limit.”
