Gautam Gambhir Advises Yashasvi Jaiswal on Fielding Woes Ahead of 2nd Test

India opener Yashasvi Jaiswal impressed with a century in his debut Test innings in England but struggled in the field, dropping four catches in the first Test against England. This led to a change in fielding positions for the second Test in Birmingham, with Sai Sudharsan replacing him in the slip cordon.

A video showed the Indian team management having a serious chat with Jaiswal after his fielding errors. Head coach Gautam Gambhir was seen providing guidance on catching techniques, indicating the importance of improving in that aspect.

Assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate later explained the decision to give Jaiswal a break from catching in the gully to boost his confidence. Despite the fielding challenges, Jaiswal remains a key player in India's batting line-up as they aim to bounce back in the series.
