Cricket
Yashasvi Jaiswal took to social media to address a video highlighting his confrontation with Asitha Fernando during the India vs Sri Lanka match, in coverage published on August 24, 2026.
He emphasised that the full dialogue should be understood before forming opinions.
The tension followed his dismissal and led to an exchange of words and a brief scuffle that required intervention, and India's batting coach later said Jaiswal should have kept a respectful distance from the bowler.
