Ishan Kishan is playing for India C in the Duleep Trophy.
Star wicketkeeper batsman Ishan Kishan is working hard these days to make a comeback in Team India. For this, he was recently seen playing in the Buchi Babu tournament, however, he got injured during this tournament and due to this, his name was not in the first two rounds of the Duleep Trophy. But in the meantime, when Ishan Kishan suddenly entered Round 2 of the Duleep Trophy, everyone was stunned.
Actually, Kishan is trying his hand in domestic cricket these days, learning from his mistakes. After taking a sudden break from the South Africa tour last year, Kishan had distanced himself from domestic cricket. Despite BCCI’s instructions, he did not participate in big tournaments like Ranji Trophy, due to which he had to suffer the consequences of being out of the central contract. But now he is trying his best to get himself back in the team by performing in domestic cricket.
Duleep Trophy 2024: Ishan Kishan is playing for India C
Today, on 12 September, when the second round of Duleep Trophy started, Ishan Kishan’s name was seen in India C’s playing XI. Ishan Kishan is not playing as a wicketkeeper but as a batsman, he has been included in the team in place of Aryan Juyal. What is even more interesting is that there has been no statement from BCCI about Kishan, neither the board gave any update on his injury nor on his playing Duleep Trophy. In such a situation, the fans are quite confused after seeing Kishan playing.
Let us tell you that earlier BCCI had issued a statement regarding Ishan Kishan’s injury, “Wicketkeeper batsman Ishan Kishan has been ruled out of the first round of the Duleep Trophy due to a back injury sustained during the All India Buchi Babu Tournament. The BCCI medical team is closely monitoring his condition and working towards his speedy recovery.”
Recently, when BCCI announced the updated squad for the Duleep Trophy after announcing India’s squad for the Bangladesh series, Ishan Kishan’s name was not there either. But today everyone is surprised to see Ishan Kishan in the playing eleven. At the time of writing this news, Ishan Kishan is unbeaten on 92 runs in the match against India B.
