NEW DELHI: Yashasvi Jaiswal suffered heartbreak early on the second day of the second Test against the West Indies in Delhi on Saturday. What seemed like an easy opportunity to convert his innings into a double hundred ended in disappointment, as he was run out in unfortunate fashion for 175.
Jaiswal could add just a couple of runs to his overnight tally of 173 before a huge mix-up with captain Shubman Gill in the middle gifted the West Indies an easy wicket.

The incident unfolded in the 92nd over when Jaiswal drove the ball to mid-off and instantly set off for a single. However, Gill showed no interest and sent him back.
Yashasvi Jaiswal started running like a blind man without seeing the fielder and got run out, After being run out, he was trying to put all the blame on Shubman Gill.

Tagenarine Chanderpaul moved a step to his right and threw the ball to the keeper's end, from where Jaiswal had taken off and found himself stranded three-fourths of the way down the pitch. By then, it was too late for him to make his ground.
The entire episode left Jaiswal in disbelief, as he had been well on course for another double hundred. Social media was quick to react, dissecting the mix-up and even pointing out Jaiswal's role in the unfortunate dismissal.
Don't give hate to Shubman Gill unnecessary for this runout. Below is my assessment of Jaiswal's runout.

I watched it now so I can tell you with 200% conviction that it was Yashasvi Jaiswal's fault. He has this bad habit of running after hitting direct into the hands of fielder… pic.twitter.com/uLJopxmib6
