'Neeche baith ke rah': Jaiswal recalls Rohit Sharma's scolding in Insta post

India cricket opener Yashasvi Jaiswal shared a nostalgic Instagram post recalling a moment from the 2024-25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy when former captain Rohit Sharma scolded him for standing up prematurely while fielding. During a match against Australia, Jaiswal was at forward silly point when he rose before Steve Smith had finished hitting the ball. Rohit, then India's captain, admonished him with the phrase 'Neeche baith ke rah' ('Stay down'), which became a viral moment. Jaiswal's post revisited this incident as the Indian team prepares for their upcoming Test series against Sri Lanka. The current squad, led by Shubman Gill, is training in Colombo ahead of the two-match series starting on August 15. Jaiswal is expected to open the batting alongside KL Rahul.
