Yashasvi Jaiswal isn't a rising star anymore; he is already a star. The dashing left-handed batter inked history with his sensational strike in the ongoing Test series versus England, joining the rarefied league of Virat Kohli to score two double-centuries in a series. Jaiswal had already proved his credentials in the shortest format of the game, putting up a consistent show for his team Rajasthan Royal, and if there was a doubt about him translating his IPL form to the Test arena, he has duly quashed it in this home series.
Nothing has come easy for Jaiswal. The result that is now visible to the world has come through years of hard work - something that has been exploited by news outlets and LinkedIn influencers every time he scores big. But the financial constraint that tainted his early days is now a thing of the past.
Yashashvi Jaiswal's IPL Contract
Jaiswal made his IPL debut for Rajasthan Royals in 2020, and as with any young player, it took him some time to find his feet in the world's most competitive league. The 2023 was the breakthrough year for the youngster, where he amassed 625 runs in 14 matches at a strike rate of 163. He also notched his maiden century, which opened the door of international cricket for him. Rajasthan Royals retained him for the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League, at a price of INR 4 Crore, which is only going to rise in the future.
Jaiswal's BCCI Contract
Jaiswal's international debut came last year, long after the BCCI had confirmed their annual retainership contract. The young gun smashed a terrific century on his debut in the Caribbean, and has performed well in the T20Is, and he is on the verge of cementing himself in the ODI team. When the annual contract list comes out this year, Jaiswal's name is surely going to be there.
Yashasvi Jaiswal's Real Estate & Brand Endorsements
Jaiswal recently bought a luxurious 1500-square-foot flat in Mumbai, where he lives with his family. The whole house is furnished with a European aesthetic, starting from the main entrance which is a black and white door with a large graceful curve on the top. When it comes to endorsements, Jaiswal already has big brands like Boost, JBL India, and Firebolt in his kitty.
Jaiswal's Style
Jaiswal, like a cohort of young players who rose to the ranks, has a great sartorial sense. He is bold with his choice of shades and is fond of jewellery.
