Yashasvi Jaiswal says he will fight back after Fernando clash
Yashasvi Jaiswal responded to criticism by stating that India will fight and reply after the Fernando incident.
Yashasvi Jaiswal posted on social media that India will fight and reply after criticism over his confrontation with Asitha Fernando on day one in Colombo. He urged observers to understand the full context before passing judgment.
The opener was out for 36 after the heated exchange that required intervention from Sri Lankan players. India’s coaching staff acknowledged that Jaiswal should have maintained distance from the bowler.

Jaiswal’s public stance signals that the team views the confrontation as part of competitive intensity rather than a lapse in discipline, which may influence how match officials handle similar incidents later in the series.
