Watch: Yashasvi Jaiswal almost slapped Dhruv Jurel ahead of IND vs NZ 3rd ODI

India and New Zealand are all set to play the third and final match of the ongoing three-match series (IND vs NZ ODI). New Zealand bounced back, winning the second match in Rajkot after being defeated in the first match. The 1-1 scoreline makes the third match a must-win for both of the teams. The team which will be able to claim the third game at the Holkar Stadium will take the series home.

Ahead of the series decider, some glimpses of the Indian players were caught on camera off the field. A video shows Yashasvi Jaiswal was about to slap Dhruv Jurel, who might have made some joke on Jaiswal. The incident took place when the Indian cricketers were boarding the team bus.

Jaiswal and Jurel were also about to step into the bus when suddenly some comments of Jurel annoyed Jaiswal so much that he almost slapped the keeper-batter. The keeper-batter also might not expect that reaction from the young batter. Meanwhile, both of the cricketers are part of India's current ODI squad but did not get the chance to play in the previous two matches.

Watch the moment when Jaiswal almost slapped Jurel

The opening pair of Rohit Sharma and captain Shubman Gill so far has performed well in the series, which makes Jaiswal's chance to play in the series very tough. KL Rahul, who struck a well-controlled century, performed as the keeper-batter for the team. So, like Jaiswal, Jurel had to sit on the bench.

After the defeat in the second match, the Indian team management can change the playing combination. But it is unlikely to see Jaiswal or Jurel in the playing eleven.
