Former India cricketer Hemang Badani said Yashasvi Jaiswal reminds him of former India opener Virender Sehwag. "Both play the cut shot well, and play well on the off-side. There's place for a batter like him or Rishabh Pant in today's cricket," he added. Badani noted that while Jaiswal got out playing the cut shot, it'd also earned him many runs.
