‘Determined’. It’s a word batting coach Shitanshu Kotak used more than once on Friday evening while referencing another daddy hundred by Yashasvi Jaiswal.
The left-handed opener had thrown it away with the bowling at his mercy in the first Test last week, attempting to cut a ball from Jayden Seales that was too close to him and only managing a nick to the wicketkeeper. As he threw his head back in dismay and trudged back to the pavilion, it was evident that he was hurting at the loose stroke.
