West Zone captain Ajinkya Rahane sends Yashasvi Jaiswal off for indiscipline.
Warned him first after Ravi Teja of South Zone complained. When the chatter happened again, Rahane calmly walked up to Jaiswal and asked him to walk. WZ has 10 players on the field now.
UPDATE: Jaiswal has been brought back on the field after 7 overs.
Yashasvi Jaiswal during the presentation ceremony: "Whatever a senior like Ajju bhai (Ajinkya Rahane) says, I take that seriously and try to follow his instructions."
Ajinkya Rahane on the episode: "No matter what, you have to respect opponents, umpires and match officials. That's the way you play cricket. Some situations require a certain kind of treatment. That situation had to be dealt with in that fashion, I think it was the right call."
Also, as @manujaveerappa pointed out: Satyajeet Bachhav had come on as Jaiswal's replacement for the entirety of the seven overs.
