Jaiswal's three-ball duck highlights concerns over aggressive approach

Yashasvi Jaiswal's three-ball duck in the second innings has highlighted a worrying trend in his aggressive strokeplay.

Yashasvi Jaiswal's three-ball duck in the second innings of the first Test against Sri Lanka has highlighted a worrying trend in his aggressive strokeplay. The left-handed opener was dismissed early after attempting an attacking shot on a difficult pitch.

Jaiswal joined an exclusive Test cricket club earlier in the match when he reached a significant milestone. However, the quick dismissal in the second innings raised questions about his shot selection under pressure.

India's series against Sri Lanka continues with the second Test after the Galle match concludes. Jaiswal will need to balance his natural aggression with the demands of the conditions in the remaining fixtures.
