Yashasvi Jaiswal Develops Wicketkeeping Skills Ahead of Mumbai Ranji Trophy Season
India Test opener Yashasvi Jaiswal is working on wicketkeeping skills alongside his batting and leg-spin ahead of Mumbai's 2026-27 Ranji Trophy season. Mumbai captain Siddhesh Lad confirmed Jaiswal's interest in adding wicketkeeping to his game, though his long-term intentions remain unclear. Jaiswal kept wickets for about 10 overs in a practice match and will play Mumbai's opener against Chandigarh before joining India A for a New Zealand tour. This development aims to broaden his skill set amid his ongoing national commitments.
