Jay Shah, Roger Binny and selectors need to talk to Ishan Kishan- Sourav Ganguly
Former India captain Sourav Ganguly said that BCCI secretary Jay Shah, president Roger Binny and the national team selectors should talk to Kishan. Ganguly, who is Delhi Capitals’ director of cricket, said all the players selected at DC have participated in India’s three major domestic tournaments – Ranji Trophy, Vijay Hazare Trophy and Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. He told that senior player Ishant Sharma has also played Ranji Trophy this year. BCCI officials need to talk to Ishaan- Sourav Ganguly “For a player like Ishan Kishan, BCCI secretary Jay Shah, president Roger Binny and the selectors need to talk to him,” Sourav Ganguly was quoted as saying by Times of India. During this time he played Ranji and then white ball cricket. Has this made him a poor player? It’s not like that.” Ganguly said that this matter needs to be handled seriously and he should now talk to Ishaan. All the players selected in Delhi Capitals have played Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy, Vijay Hazare Trophy and Ranji Trophy. Even Ishant Sharma has played Ranji. Speaking about workload management, Ganguly said that only fast bowlers need to manage their workload, why do batsmen need workload management? I can understand that Bumrah was rested, Jimmy Anderson has played more than 160 Tests. What workload are you talking about at the beginning of your career? I still maintain that the standard of Indian cricket is excellent.
“I was surprised by his decision not to play” – Sourav Ganguly said about Ishan Kishan being out of contract
BCCI removed Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer from the central contract. Sourav Ganguly and Ishan Kishan. (Photo Source: X(Twitter) Former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly expressed surprise at Ishan Kishan’s decision not to play Ranji Trophy this season after being dropped from the BCCI’s central contract. BCCI recently announced the central contract, in which big players like Kishan and Shreyas Iyer were not included. Kishan had declared himself unavailable for domestic cricket after the South Africa Test series. Kishan had taken a break from domestic and international cricket due to mental fatigue. In an interview with RevSports, when Ganguly was asked about Kishan not playing Ranji Trophy, he replied. Ganguly said, “You should play first class cricket. Once you become a contracted player, you are expected to play in premier tournaments. Shreyas Iyer is going to play in the semi-finals for Mumbai in a few days. Yes, they are young people and Ishaan has surprised me. He was a part of the Indian team in all formats. Such a big contract in IPL. I don’t know why they did this. You should play especially when you are talented like Ishan Kishan. When you are playing for India in all formats, you must play. I was surprised by his decision not to play.” Furthermore, Ganguly also supported BCCI’s decision to drop both Shreyas and Ishan from the central contracts. BCCI’s decision regarding Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer is absolutely right – Sourav Ganguly He further said, “I think BCCI wants him to play first class cricket. I am surprised that Shreyas Iyer has not played Ranji Trophy. This is a major tournament and you should play. So, it is BCCI’s decision and they have done the right thing. “Every contracted cricketer should play first-class cricket because that is the foundation of cricket in this country.” The BCCI’s decision to exclude players like Kishan and Iyer from central contracts can be seen as a measure to emphasize the importance of first-class cricket. While Iyer is playing the Ranji Trophy semi-final match for Mumbai, Kishan was also seen playing the match with Hardik Pandya in the DY Patil T-20 Cup 2024.
“If this happens, Indian cricket will not get the desired result”- Irfan Pathan’s tweet on Ishan and Iyer’s ouster.
Star cricketers Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer have been removed from the central contract of BCCI (Board of Control for Cricket in India). Team India’s former veteran all-rounder Irfan made a tweet regarding these two players which is now rapidly going viral on social media. BCCI recently announced the contracts for the 2023-24 season, and Kishan-Iyer were not included in the list due to not playing domestic cricket. Irfan Pathan was also a little surprised to see the names of Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer not in this list of central contracts. The former all-rounder posted about this on X and expressed hope that both Kishan and Iyer will make a strong comeback for the Indian team. He also talked about how the rules should remain the same for everyone after BCCI mentioned star all-rounder Hardik Pandya’s name in the contract list. Irfan Pathan posted about Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer Irfan Pathan posted an ex and wrote, “Both Shreyas and Ishaan are talented cricketers. Hopefully they will bounce back and come back stronger. If players like Hardik don’t want to play red-ball cricket, should he and other players like him participate in white-ball domestic cricket when not on national duty? If this is not applied to all, Indian cricket will not be able to achieve the desired results!” They are talented cricketers, both Shreyas and Ishan. Hoping they bounce back and come back stronger. If players like Hardik don’t want to play red ball cricket, should he and others like him participate in white-ball domestic cricket when they aren’t on national duty? If this… — Irfan Pathan (@IrfanPathan) February 29, 2024 The surprising thing is that Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer did not get the central contract because both of them did not play in Ranji Trophy. However, Shreyas Iyer played Ranji Trophy after the South Africa tour and then was also a part of the Test team. Now he is also going to play the semi-finals, but the selectors did the same with him as they did with Ishaan. According to BCCI rules, if a player has played 3 Tests, 8 ODIs or 10 T20I matches from October 1 till the release of the central contract, then he is included in the central contract. Both Ishan Kishan and Shreyas Iyer fit into this. He did not find a place in the list of annual contracts, while Hardik Pandya, who was out of World Cup 2023 after only five matches, has been included in A grade.
“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.

IND vs ENG: “Those who have no hunger, they have no place in the team” – Rohit warned Ishaan through gestures.
Rohit Sharma (Photo Source: Getty Images) Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan have landed in controversy for skipping Ranji Trophy matches even after being sent a notice by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). On Monday, February 26, after defeating England in the fourth Test match played in Ranchi, Team India captain Rohit Sharma talked about the youth and said that they are not showing hunger to play the longest format of the game. . Rohit Sharma gave a big statement regarding the player who does not play test cricket Captain Rohit Sharma, in the press conference after winning the Ranchi Test match, targeted all those players who stay away from Test cricket. He said, “Look, Test cricket is the toughest format. You can tell just by looking at the players who don’t have the hunger for Test cricket. Then what is the use of feeding them all? This is a format for people who work very hard.” This statement of Rohit clearly shows that he directly attacked Ishan Kishan. Actually, Ishan Kishan was a part of India’s T-20 and Test team on the South Africa tour, but he withdrew his name from the team in the middle of the series citing mental fatigue. After this he did not make himself available for selection. After returning from the South Africa tour, India played a T-20 series against Afghanistan on home soil and now a five-match Test series is being played against England, but Ishan Kishan’s name is not there. Selector and coach Rahul Dravid has made it clear that Ishan Kishan has not made himself available for selection. In such a situation, it is difficult for him to be selected. Rahul Dravid had also said that if Ishaan wants to come back to the team, then for that he will have to play domestic cricket, only then he would like to return to Team India. However, Ishan Kishan may no longer be selected in the Test team for a long time as he did not play Ranji Trophy. He is busy preparing for IPL 2024. He was recently seen practicing with Hardik Pandya.
