Talking to Joel Caine and Bryan Fletcher on The Run Home with Joel and Fletch YouTube channel, the Aussie great, Nathan Lyon revealed how the 22-year-old Indian opener sledged him for his age in the first Test.

"Especially, young Jaiswal [is chirpy]. He said to me that you are a legend but you are old," Lyon told.

Lyon was also asked to pick who would he rather get out in the next match in Adelaide, Virat Kohli or Yashasvi Jaiswal to which he said,

"I bowled to him after he was on 120 or something. All good fun. I told him I don't feel that old. I would want to pick both [Jaiswal and Virat] their wickets," he concluded.
