(Image Source: BCCI) Team India’s young wicketkeeper batsman Ishan Kishan continues to be in the headlines. The board’s warning has also had no effect on Ishaan, who is out of the Indian cricket team. The batsman’s absence from the Ranji Trophy continued as the wicketkeeper-batsman, who plays domestic cricket for Jharkhand, also skipped the final round of matches that began on Friday. A few days ago, it was claimed in media reports that a senior BCCI official had instructed Kishan to play in Jharkhand’s final league match against Rajasthan in Jamshedpur from February 16. But still he did not play the match and in such a situation the board would hardly like this behavior of Ishan Kishan. Ishan Kishan did not play Ranji match despite board’s notice A few days ago, during the change in the name of Saurashtra Cricket Stadium, BCCI Secretary Jai Shah had clearly stated that the players getting central contracts from the Board will have to play in the domestic circuit. Jay Shah had said, “The players have already been told over the phone and I am also going to write a letter to them that if the chairman of selectors, coach and captain want this from you, then you will have to play red-ball cricket.” In Kishan’s absence, Kumar Kushagra is handling the responsibility of wicketkeeping for Jharkhand. Jharkhand, which has only one win and ten points from six matches so far, faces Rajasthan in a Ranji match on home soil. Kishan, who had sought a break midway through India’s tour of South Africa, has been training in Baroda with his new Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya. Apart from Ishan Kishan, Deepak Chahar and Shreyas Iyer are also not included in the last round matches which started at different places. However, Iyer had lower back and waist problems. These three players – Kishan, Chahar and Iyer – were specifically asked to play for their respective state teams in first-class cricket.
