Mumbai, October 12 - Indian opener Yashasvi Jaiswal has been spotted practicing wicket-keeping during a Ranji Trophy match between Mumbai and Chandigarh, sparking speculation that he may be preparing to compete for a wicket-keeping spot in the Indian Cricket team. The new skill could give Jaiswal an advantage during selection as he has not been a part of the team for some time.
Mumbai captain Siddhesh Lad revealed that Jaiswal has been working hard to adapt to wicket-keeping and may want to take on the responsibility for Mumbai or India in the future.

Former cricketer Wasim Jaffer questioned the decision, stating that it is a difficult and demanding job, especially for someone who has not kept wickets since childhood.
