Yashasvi Jaiswal entered the dressing room after hitting one of the most iconic knocks of his career, 214 not out. He was greeted by a stern-faced Rahul Dravid, the coach, his arms crossed and his expression one of disapproval.

"What were you thinking out there, Yash?" Dravid's voice was measured, but there was an underlying tone of frustration.

Yashasvi shrugged nonchalantly, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "Just doing what you have taught, coach. Hitting sixes and playing my best game."

Dravid's eyebrows shot up in disbelief. "Sixes? Against James Anderson? You realize he's one of the best bowlers in the world, right?"

Yashasvi grinned cheekily. "Well, someone had to tell him a proper farewell, didn't they?"

Dravid sighed, rubbing his temples as if trying to ward off a headache. "This isn't a game of street cricket, Yash. You can't just go swinging your bat around like a madman."

Just then, Rohit Sharma, the captain, entered the room, a smile playing on his lips as he overheard the conversation. "What's going on here, gentlemen? Yash, did you upset Rahul bhaiya again?"

Yashasvi shrugged, unfazed by Dravid's disapproval. "Just showing Anderson which country is the boss, bhaiya."

Rohit chuckled, shaking his head. "You never cease to amaze me, Yash. But maybe tone it down a bit next time, huh? We don't want to rile up the opposition too much."

Dravid sighed in exasperation. "Exactly my point, Rohit. We need to play smart, not just rely on brute force."

Yashasvi flashed a grin at Rohit, his eyes twinkling with mischief. "But where's the fun in that, skipper?"

Rohit chuckled, shaking his head in mock defeat. "You're impossible, Yash. Just promise me you'll think twice before trying to hit Anderson out of the park again."

Yashasvi raised his hand in a mock salute. "Yes, sir. No more sixes against Anderson until it is necessary. Got it."

Dravid couldn't help but crack a smile at the banter between the captain and the young batsman. Despite his frustration, he knew that Yashasvi's fearless attitude was also a strength-one that could turn the tide of a match in India's favor.

Meanwhile, Rohit picked up his phone and dialed a familiar number. As the call connected, a voice filled with excitement greeted him on the other end.

Rohit replied to Virat, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "You should have seen it, Virat! Yash just took Anderson to the cleaners. Three sixes in a row!"
