“Many thanks. I had a great time right from the beginning and made sure to observe the ball and perform correct cricket shots. I am attempting to do what I am doing well; on some days it goes well, on other days it doesn’t, and I don’t mind. I am grateful to all of my seniors for their guidance. I express my gratitude to the Rajasthan Royals management, particularly to Sanga sir and Sanju bhai, for providing me with these possibilities. I’m really delighted today because I go out and give it my all during practice,” Jaiswal remarked.
