Jaiswal Fights Back
Jaiswal was out for a duck in the first innings. But he came back strong in the second. During the 19th over, he hit a boundary off Starc. He then cheekily said, “It’s coming too slow!” Starc smiled but looked annoyed. Jaiswal stayed aggressive. He smashed two sixes and seven fours. His unbeaten 90 was bold and fearless. Starc, known for his temper, kept his focus. He seemed eager to respond with the ball.
