As India gears up for the pink-ball Test against Australia at Adelaide, Indian batting stars Yashasvi Jaiswal and Virat Kohli will have some records worth looking upto that can witness them climb up over legendary Sachin Tendulkar and Don Bradman.

What Separates Yashasvi Jaiswal From Prithvi Shaw? Duo's Star Coach Says, "Work Ethic..."

Once dubbed as the 'next big thing' in Indian cricket, Prithvi Shaw's career has witnessed a dramatic fall the last few years. The man, who became the youngest Indian Test centurion on debut in 2018, isn't even a regular for the Mumbai Ranji Trophy team now. After being released by the Delhi Capitals ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 auction, Shaw went unsold in the event despite keeping a base price of INR 75 lakh. While his attitude towards training and fitness have been considered among the top factors towards his downfall, many wonder why the talented opening batter has gone the route he has.

"I Always Fight...": Days After Destroying Australia, Yashasvi Jaiswal On How He Draws Confidence

Brought up in penury, the sensational Yashasvi Jaiswal says he now uses the experience gained from those difficult days as ammunition to conquer the battles on and off the field.
