Three times Yashasvi Jaiswal was run out in Test cricket

Yashasvi Jaiswal has been dismissed run out on three occasions in Test cricket: once at the Melbourne Cricket Ground against Australia, in the second Test versus the West Indies in Delhi in October 2025, and during the first Test against Sri Lanka. Those three dismissals occurred across separate Test matches and ended promising innings for the left-handed opener.

The 24-year-old Jaiswal is described in the source material as a left-handed opener who pairs aggressive strokeplay with the capacity to play long innings and to put pressure on bowlers from the start. He has produced several notable Test scores, including 214 against England and 173 against Australia, and is identified as one of the young players in India’s red-ball setup under Shubman Gill’s leadership.

At the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Jaiswal reached 82 off 118 balls, with 11 fours and a six, while batting alongside Virat Kohli. Facing Scott Boland, Jaiswal drove towards mid-on and immediately set off for a single; Kohli did not respond, and with Jaiswal too far down the pitch Alex Carey removed the bails to effect the run out.

In the second Test against the West Indies in Delhi in October 2025, Jaiswal compiled 175 off 258 deliveries, striking 22 fours and finishing 25 runs short of a double century. That innings ended when a mix-up with partner Shubman Gill left Jaiswal short of his ground and led to a run out.

During the first Test against Sri Lanka, on the final ball of the 11th over the Sri Lankan debutant Keshara Nuwantha was bowling to KL Rahul; Rahul played to mid-on and called for a single while Jaiswal at the non-striker’s end responded. The spinner moved to stop the ball and collided with Jaiswal, who fell and lost his footing as Rahul had already advanced. Confusion left both batters at the same end, Sri Lankan wicketkeeper Niroshan Dickwella pulled the bails, and Jaiswal walked back after scoring 32 from 37 balls with five boundaries in his first innings of that Test.

That dismissal in the Sri Lanka match was recorded as the third run out of Jaiswal’s Test career; the earlier two run outs occurred in the matches against Australia and the West Indies. The source material also notes that Jaiswal’s attacking approach can create risk when running between the wickets.

Among the players expected to have a major role in India’s campaign for the ICC WTC final is Yashasvi Jaiswal.
