"It always feels good to bat with Rohit Sharma. He is a legend, it's wonderful to bat with him and learn from him. The way he bats, his mindset, discipline there's a lot to learn from him. Of course, it's really nice to bat with Rohit Sharma. We always keep talking about the situations and how we can move forward with the innings. We have our plans about different situations and how we can bat well," Jaiswal said recently according to ICC.
"I always look forward to learning. I look up to my teammates, whatever they say they have a reason behind it. I want to learn from them, everyone in the team is good. Whenever I bat, I try to make sure that I bat for a longer duration. It's always a pleasure to represent the country and to just go out there and enjoy the game of cricket. Whenever I go out to bat, I always try to give my team a good head start. I try to bat well and score crucial runs for my team," said the 21-year-old batsman.
Yashasvi got out after scoring 57 runs in the first innings of the second Test.
"Of course, I am disappointed but it happens in cricket but I just need to keep learning and make sure the same mistake is not repeated. The wicket was very different from other pitches, I enjoyed batting it was pretty nice to go out there and have a different experience. 100 per cent we (Rohit and Yashasvi) have been batting well, we have a really good target as of now and let's see what happens next."
