Yashasvi Jaiswal Shifts to Goa, Set to Captain the Side

Yashasvi Jaiswal has switched states in domestic cricket, moving from Mumbai to Goa. The young India opener has obtained a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the Mumbai Cricket Association.

Background

Jaiswal secured the NOC in just about an hour, and it is understood that the Goa Cricket Association (GCA) has offered him captaincy. The Mumbai team is currently led by Ajinkya Rahane (red ball) and Shreyas Iyer (white ball).

Statement from Jaiswal

"I have had the privilege of representing Mumbai in domestic cricket and have immensely benefited from the opportunities provided by the association. However, after careful consideration of my career aspirations and personal circumstances, I have decided to seek a transfer to Goa to continue my domestic cricket journey."

Details on Transfer

Jaiswal is believed to have received the NOC even before he boarded the flight to Chandigarh, where his IPL team Rajasthan Royals play their next game. He is willing to comply with all necessary formalities as per the BCCI's player transfer regulations and will ensure a smooth transition.

Career Statistics

Since making his Mumbai debut in 2019, Jaiswal has played 63 matches across formats – 10 in the Ranji Trophy, 25 in List A one-day games, and 28 in T20s. He has represented India in 19 Tests, one ODI and 23 T20Is.
