The left-handed opener has been practicing wicketkeeping during Mumbai’s pre-season camp for the Ranji Trophy 2026-27, as confirmed by Mumbai captain Siddhesh Lad.
Wasim Jaffer believes that Yashasvi Jaiswal may be trying to find another way into India’s white-ball teams, where he is yet to secure a regular place.
The former Indian batter also questioned where Jaiswal would fit in as a wicketkeeper, given the competition from Ishan Kishan, Sanju Samson, and Rishabh Pant.
Wasim Jaffer sends strong advice to Yashasvi Jaiswal
He feels that playing as a wicketkeeper in Tests would be even more difficult and has advised Jaiswal to concentrate on his batting. The left-handed batter has already established himself as a regular member of India’s Test team, but his place in the white-ball sides is still not secure.
Jaffer also shared his views on India’s bowling problems after the team suffered a shocking six-wicket defeat against the West Indies in the second T20I in Ranchi on Friday. India scored a massive 249/5, but the visitors chased down the target of 250 in just 18.3 overs in Ranchi.
No one is even close to Jasprit Bumrah: Jaffer
Jaffer believes India’s bowling attack misses Jasprit Bumrah badly when the senior fast bowler is rested. Bumrah has been given a break for the ongoing five-match T20I series, and Jaffer feels there is a big difference between him and the other Indian bowlers.
He signed off by saying, “There is a huge gap between Bumrah and the rest of the bowlers. Whoever you play, you're only hoping. Mayank Yadav did well today. Arshdeep has been doing well, but he always has these games where he leaks a lot of runs. It is expected in this format. There is no one who is even close to Bumrah.”
