India vs Australia, 2nd ODI Highlights: It was Mitchell Starc with the ball with his 5/53 and then Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head with the bat as they took Australia to a 10-wicket win. Series now 1-1

Former India skipper Mohammad Azharuddin believes Ishan Kishan would be a strong option as a wicket-keeper batter in the absence of Rishabh Pant for next month's four-match Test series against Australia. Ishan was handed a maiden call-up in India's Test squad for the Border-Gavaskar trophy beginning at Nagpur on February 9. Azhar, who is doing commentary in the International League T20 in UAE, said what happened to Pant is very unfortunate but Ishan's aggressive style of batting makes him a strong contender for the wicketkeeper-batter's slot. Pant was severely injured in a car accident in the last week of December while he was travelling from Delhi to Roorkee. He will be sidelined for most of the 2023 season as he recovers from multiple injuries. "Ishan Kishan has been selected in the Indian Test team on his recent form I think he will be a stronger contender for wicket-keeper batsman option. He is a left handed batsman," Azhar told PTI in an interview. However, it will not be eas

Former pacer Venkatesh Prasad has criticised the exclusion of Ishan Kishan from India's playing eleven for the first ODI against Sri Lanka, saying "there is no way you drop a player for scoring a double hundred". Ahead of the first ODI against Sri Lanka on Tuesday, India skipper Rohit Sharma made it clear that he will open alongside Shubman Gill and not Kishan, who scored a double hundred in his last innings in the 50-over format. "Think fair would have been to give chance to a man who scored a double hundred in India's last ODI, and in a series where India lost two games and the series. "Have all the time in the world for Gill, but no way you drop a player for scoring a double ton," Prasad said in a series of tweets. Prasad, who played 33 Tests and 161 ODIs for India, also feels that mediocrity is being preferred over "x-factor" in the current setup. "There is a reason we have underperformed in Limited overs cricket. Constant chopping changing and a guy who does brilliantly and i

India's star opener Ishan Kishan has said that the team wants to see Virat Kohli score continuously to reach 100 centuries

When the Indian team had descended in the national capital for a T20I against South Africa in June, Uttam Majumdar's phone rang and he was requested to visit Hotel ITC Maurya. At the other end of the call was his favourite ward, "apna baccha" (own kid), Ishan Kishan, asking him to come to the team hotel. "Ishan wanted me to come to hotel everyday, when he was not training, and work on his head position and body balance while facing the short ball from Anrich Nortje and Kagiso Rabada," Majumdar, who runs his own academy in Greater Noida, told PTI while savouring his ward's fastest ODI double hundred against Bangladesh. "The hotel room became an extended net area. At least for four to five days before that game, he would play the shadow pull. It was more about conditioning his mind and he scored 76 opening the batting," said Majumdar as he kept one eye on the TV set at his academy and other on the net session of the future Ishan Kishans.
