Yashasvi Jaiswal Creates History in IPL 2025, Becomes Only Player in World to Achieve Remarkable Milestone
In a thrilling encounter, Rajasthan Royals’ Yashasvi Jaiswal continued to impress with his bat, scoring 49 runs from 19 balls, including seven fours and three sixes, against Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL 2025. According to a report by India.com, Jaiswal’s aggressive batting propelled Rajasthan Royals to a strong start in their chase of 206.
The young batsman has been in exceptional form for the Rajasthan Royals, with scores of 75, 51, 74, and 49 in his last four innings. However, despite his consistent batting, the team has struggled, suffering five consecutive defeats. As per India.com, lack of support from other Rajasthan Royals players has been a significant factor in their downfall.
Jaiswal’s impressive performance has also earned him a place in the record books. India.com reports that he set a new IPL record with his first-ball six against RCB, becoming the only player to have accomplished this feat three times, although seven other players have achieved it once.
Unfortunately for Rajasthan Royals, their team’s overall performance was not enough to secure a win. Despite needing only 18 runs from the final two overs with five wickets remaining, a strong penultimate over from Josh Hazlewood, which yielded only one run and two wickets, proved decisive. As India.com notes, this defeat follows similar late-game collapses against Delhi Capitals and Lucknow Super Giants, dropping RR to eighth place in the IPL standings.
The Rajasthan Royals’ recent loss severely jeopardizes their playoff chances. While mathematically still possible, qualification requires a highly improbable sequence of events, including winning all remaining matches. According to India.com, pacer Josh Hazlewood starred with a superb four-wicket haul to help Royal Challengers Bengaluru edge past Rajasthan Royals by 11 runs in their IPL 2025 clash.
In conclusion, Yashasvi Jaiswal’s remarkable performance has been a bright spot for Rajasthan Royals in an otherwise disappointing season. As India.com reports, Jaiswal’s achievement is a testament to his skill and dedication, and he will look to continue his form in the remaining matches of the season.
The Rajasthan Royals will look to regroup and reassess their strategy as they aim to salvage what remains of their season. However, with their playoff chances dwindling, the team’s focus will shift to building for the future and developing their young players, including the talented Yashasvi Jaiswal. As noted by India.com, Jaiswal’s future looks bright, and he will undoubtedly be a player to watch in the seasons to come.
