Bhupendra Jaiswal's support for his son
Bhupendra Jaiswal has always supported his son in his pursuit of becoming a cricketer. During Yashaswi’s early days at home, his father made a small pitch in front of the house and also installed lights nearby so that he could train till late at night. At the age of nine, Yashaswi was taken to Mumbai by his father to practice at Azad Maidan.
After Yashaswi’s heroics in the ICC U-19 Cricket World Cup 2020, India still failed to lift the trophy. In an interview with ANI, Bhupendra said:
“Yashaswi played well, but I would have been happier if India had won the U19 World Cup. It was an experience. I want him to play better in the future and make the country proud ”.
Also, after Yashaswi was bought by Rajasthan Royals in the IPL auctions, Bhupendra said, "His hard work is paying off. I hope that he will perform well in the IPL and get a chance in the Indian side. I am extremely happy,” to ANI. When asked about how he feels about the hefty price his son was bought for, Bhupendra said, "It is not about money. It is about the hard work that he has done. He is making us proud, and I pray to God that he will do well in the upcoming U-19 World Cup and bring the coveted trophy to the country,” to ANI.
