| Jaiswal can play in any conditions, needs mental adjustment for Australia tour: Lara | | | Agencies
MUMBAI, Oct 8: India opener Yashasvi Jaiswal is equipped to "play in any conditions" but will need to make some mental adjustments for the upcoming tour of Australia, the legendary Brian Lara said here on Tuesday.
Jaiswal has established himself as a vital cog in the Test side with 929 runs in only eight matches this year at 66.35, his two centuries and six fifties putting him as the leading run-scorer for India in 2024.
"He has got the ability to play in any conditions. I saw him in the Caribbean. Obviously, the pitches in Australia are slightly different, but if you take that sort of strength that you have, you're going to play good cricket in any conditions.
"I expect to see him do well," Lara told the media during the launch of the International Masters League.
The West Indies great said Jaiswal will need to make some mental adjustments to continue his success Down Under.
"I think the adjustment is upstairs," said Lara, pointing towards his head when asked if the Indian opener will have to make any adjustments.
"The adjustment is your ability to back your talent in whatever conditions. I say this with a pinch of salt because conditions in India have changed.
"With the IPL you've got international players coming. You are feeding your players a different level of competition, which is great, so I don't think there's much that he has to do technically," he added.
"I just think, mentally, travelling away from home, playing against Australia on their shores is a different beast. But I believe that the Indian team that I've seen going to Australia over the last couple of occasions, are very capable of winning," he said.
