WATCH: Rajasthan Royals Duo Yashasvi Jaiswal and Dhruv Jurel's Playful Banter Goes Viral

Rajasthan Royals teammates Yashasvi Jaiswal and Dhruv Jurel provided a viral moment of light-hearted banter ahead of the third ODI against New Zealand, showcasing the strong camaraderie developed between the two young stars. The incident, caught on camera as the Indian team departed their practice session in Indore, involved Jurel teasing Jaiswal, who responded with a mock slap, confirming the playful nature of their interaction.

The duo shares a dressing room for both the national side and the Rajasthan Royals in the IPL, fostering a close bond. While both supremely talented youngsters are currently awaiting opportunities in the senior ODI side, their presence and positive energy are vital for the team environment. Jurel, who was brought in as a replacement, and Jaiswal, who recently scored his maiden ODI century against South Africa, represent the bright future of the Royals franchise and Indian cricket.

This display of friendship highlights the relaxed atmosphere within the Indian camp, even during a high-stakes series decider. Jaiswal is now set to return to action for the Rajasthan Royals in the upcoming IPL season, where he will look to translate his international form into another stellar campaign for the franchise.
