Ishan Kishan: The England team is to tour India in the new year 2025 i.e. in January. Where a series of 5 T20 and 3 ODI matches will be played between the two teams. The Board of Control for Cricket in India has almost prepared a 15-member team for this series. It can be confirmed in January. In this series, Ishan Kishan, who has been out for a long time, may return to the Indian team. The dispute between BCCI and him seems to be getting resolved, which is a good sign for Indian cricket.
The tussle between Ishan Kishan and BCCI is over!
Ishan Kishan is one of the emerging batsmen of the Indian team. Who is considered the future of the Indian team? The reins of Team India will be in his hands. But, Ishan came under the target of BCCI due to his arbitrariness. He did not give importance to domestic cricket last year. After this former secretary Jai Shah not only removed him from Team India but also from the central contract. But, the good thing is that Ishan Kishan is continuously participating in domestic cricket after the instructions of BCCI. After which BCCI can forgive him and give him a chance to return to the ODI and T20 series to be played against England.
Ishan Kishan is in great form
Ishan Kishan’s bat, which has been out for a long time, is spitting fire in domestic cricket. Ishan Kishan scored a century in India’s oldest tournament, the Buchi Babu Tournament. After performing well in Ranji, he played an innings of 77 runs against Arunachal in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. Apart from this, his batting roared fiercely in the Vijay Hazare Trophy.
He played an innings of 135 runs against Manipur with explosive batting. While he was also in great form behind the wicket. He also took 2 catches and 1 stump in this match. At the same time, he can be seen batting at number 4 against England. Shreyas Iyer proved to be a flop against Sri Lanka. In such a situation, Ishan can be tried in this position.
