Delhi: Yashasvi Jaiswal, who played for the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 for Rajasthan Royals (RR), had to change a social media post recently. After the end of the season, he wrote an emotional post on Instagram, but the fans started guessing about his language that he may be going to leave the team.
Misunderstanding from Yashasvi’s first post
Despite a stunning victory against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on 20 May, Rajasthan could not become a place in the playoffs. After this, Yashaswi wrote on Instagram, “Thank you Rajasthan Royals for Everything. What was expected was not, but I am grateful for this journey. Now the next challenge and whatever future brought.”
These lines have been a little gesture to the fans that perhaps the famous teams can change, especially when they are “grateful for the journey” and “next challenge” somewhere.
Change in post
Shortly after, Yashasvi edited his post. He changed the “thank you for our journey” and wrote the emoji of the Indian tricolor with the “next challenge”, which made it clear that he was talking about Team India’s England Test series, not a franchise change.
Don’t worry rr fans – yashasvi jaiswal edited his caption to stop the fake narratives:
1) “From Grateful for the Journey” to “Continue to be grateful for our journey togeether”.
2) Added 🇮🇳 flag after “on to the next challenge” to show his next assignment. pic.twitter.com/mkxoquhcei

The most successful batsman for Rajasthan
This season, Yashasvi Jaiswal was the most successful batsman of Rajasthan Royals. He scored 559 runs in 14 matches, which is about 200 runs more than the team’s next best batsman. However, the team’s performance was weak and they were out of the playoff race with only 8 points.
Questions raised about captaincy
Some cricket fans and experts also questioned why when Sanju Samson was out due to injury, why was Ryan Parag captaincy instead of an experienced player like Yashasvi. Yashasvi is now counted among the important batsmen playing in all three formats of India.
Now watching England tour
Now Yashasvi’s entire focus is towards England tour, where India will play five Test matches between June 20 and August 4. After Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli retired from Test cricket, the responsibility of Yashasvi in the team has increased even more.
