After this, he was not selected in the T20 series against Afghanistan in January, and Kishan, who at one time seemed to be easily making a place in the T20 World Cup 2024, was not selected for this tournament as well. So the fans were more surprised when Team India was selected for the five-match series for the Zimbabwe tour. In this series, the selection committee has shown faith in Jitesh Sharma and Dhruv Jurel instead of Kishan. Now, after being continuously ignored from Team India, Ishan Kishan has made a big statement. Kishan says that this time is not at all easy for him. Ishan Kishan broke his silence regarding the selection Let us tell you that in a conversation with Indian Express, Ishan Kishan said about not being able to make a place in the Indian cricket team – This is disappointing. Today I do not want to say that everything is fine. It was not easy for me at all. You endure a lot. All this kept going on in my mind that what happened, why did it happen, why did it happen to me. All these things happened to me when I was performing. Kishan further said- I was scoring runs at that time, and even then I was only on the bench. All these things happen in a team sport. But I felt tired from traveling with the team, and I was not feeling well. Therefore, I decided to take a break from the game. But sadly no one understood this except my family.

Marnus Labuschagne, who is constantly proving to be a flop in Test cricket, got the support of Pat Cummins.
Labuschagne has scored a century only once in the last 37 Test innings. Marnus Labuschagne (Image Credit- Twitter Australia cricket team’s experienced batsman Marnus Labuschagne is currently going through a very bad phase in Test cricket. So in this bad phase, the cricketer has got full support from his captain Pat Cummins. It is noteworthy that for some time now, Labuschagne has been seen continuously struggling to score runs. In the last 37 Test innings, fans have seen only one century from Labuschagne’s bat. So, his performance in the last 6 innings has been 2, 1, 5, 3, 1* and 10 runs. After this mediocre performance, there is constant talk about his place in the team. However, now Cummins has given a big statement supporting Labuschagne. Out of form Labuschagne got support from Cummins Let us tell you that regarding the poor test form of Marnus Labuschagne, Pat Cummins quoted Fox Sports and said – Not at all. He will be the first player to admit that he just needs to score a few runs to stay in the team. His poor form is not due to lack of practice in the nets. Apparently he was out in the second innings (first Test against New Zealand) due to down leg problem. Cummins further said- We are very clear about our team that these 6 players are the best batsmen of our team. Although sometimes this is not seen, the story of our team has been that when someone needs someone, someone always stands up. Let us tell you that at present Labuschagne is an important member of the Australia team in the two-match Test series against New Zealand. However, it will be worth watching whether he will get a place in the playing eleven of the second Test match against New Zealand starting from March 8 or not?
