Prominent Australian cricketers, including Steve Smith and Mitchell Starc, have identified India's emerging talent Yashasvi Jaiswal as the future superstar of world cricket. The 22-year-old left-handed batter has made significant strides since his international debut. His exceptional performances in Test cricket and T20Is have marked him out as a potential global sensation in the sport.
Praise for Jaiswal's versatility Smith confidently stated that "Jaiswal could be a generational superstar," a sentiment echoed by Starc, who added, "Jaiswal's probably the next big superstar, I think." Alex Carey, Josh Hazlewood, and Nathan Lyon also backed Jaiswal as India's next cricketing sensation. Hazlewood highlighted Jaiswal's adaptability across different formats saying, "Jaiswal looks like a proper cricketer for all formats.
" Impressive debut and record-breaking series Jaiswal made waves with a record-breaking 171-run knock on his Test debut last year, against the West Indies. He then broke several records in the five-match Test series against England at home. The young opener was adjudged the Player of the Series.
Jaiswal became the second Indian batter to slam 700 runs in a bilateral Test series, joining Sunil Gavaskar. The left-handed batter has also proven his mettle in T20I cricket. Other potential superstars in Indian cricket While Jaiswal has received high praise, other young talents are also being recognized.
Australian all-rounder Cameron Green and batter Travis Head named Shubman Gill as their pick for India's future superstar. Gill, India's vice-captain in white-ball cricket, has already played 25 Test matches, scoring four centuries and six half-centuries. He remains one of the few Indians with a ton in each of the three formats.
