Jaiswal greeted MS Dhoni with a namaste instead of fist bump, showing utmost respect.
Rajasthan Royals (RR) youngster Yashasvi Jaiswal won hearts as he greeted MS Dhoni with folded hands or Namaste before the toss. It was a gesture of respect towards the ex-India captain, while others were fist-bumping him.
The 18-year-old made his debut in the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Tuesday. He opened the innings with captain Steve Smith but got dismissed early on just 6 runs by Deepak Chahar.
No matter the failure with the bat, fans were already impressed with Jaiswal for his gesture. They also know his potential and have seen him providing support to the Indian batting line-up during the U-19 World Cup earlier this year.

Rajasthan Royals won the match by 16 runs after MS Dhoni failed to provide flurry with the bat in death overs. Apart from sixes in last over, he was looking for singles more than a boundary. Faf du Plessis was the top scorer for CSK with 72 runs off 37 deliveries.
Here is how the Twitterati reacted to Jaiswal's gesture:
