India's opening batter Yashasvi Jaiswal played some beautiful strokes as the team took on Sri Lanka in the first T20I of the 3-match series on Saturday. Jaiswal scored 21-ball 40 while opening the innings with vice-captain Shubman Gill who also looked in sublime touch. However, it was Jaiswal who also displayed his ability to hit some unorthodox shots, tailor-made for T20 cricket, probably trying to match his skipper Suryakumar Yadav.
