“I am very pleased for any youngster to come and do well because we all start as young, because when you get an opportunity, you have to grab it with both hands, which they have done it, and Jaiswal especially,” the 74-year-old said.”If you see his record, it’s unbelievable, he has been very consistent, I hope this form continues and he is a very positive player which I like. Because one failure, it doesn’t make you bad, but if you have the talent, so I am sure things will only get better with time,” he concluded.
