DTVHINDI“Face the challenges and come back even stronger” – Shastri said in support of Shreyas and Ishaan
Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan were dropped from the central contract. Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan BCCI today announced the central contract for one year. The names of Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer were not in this list, which surprised many people. However, a few days ago, reports had surfaced that Ishan and Iyer could be dropped from the central contract because despite the board’s request, both of them had not played in the Ranji Trophy. When BCCI announced the central contracts of its 30-member players on Wednesday, it clearly stated that the names of Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan were not considered for its annual contracts. Meanwhile, former cricketer and head coach of Team India, Ravi Shastri has tweeted in support of Iyer and Ishaan. Posting on X, Ravi Shastri wrote, “In the game of cricket, comebacks define emotion. Chin up, Shreyas Iyer and Ishaan kiss! Test yourself, face the challenges and come back even stronger. Your past achievements speak volumes, and I have no doubt that you will prevail once again.” In the game of cricket, comebacks define the spirit.
