Ishan Kishan returns to Team India, will be seen playing on Australia tour
Ishan Kishan has been selected in India A team. Ishan Kishan (Pic Source-X) India A Squad For Australia Tour: BCCI has announced the India A squad for the Australia tour on Monday. Ishan Kishan has returned to this team, he has been selected as a wicketkeeper batsman in the 15-member India A team. Whereas Rituraj Gaikwad will be seen captaining India A. Abhimanyu Easwaran has been made the vice-captain. Easwaran has scored four centuries in his last four first-class matches. 26-year-old Ishaan has been out of the international cricket team for a long time. He played his last international match in November last year. He was suddenly ruled out of the South Africa tour at the end of 2023, after which there has been no comeback in the senior Indian team. After that Ishaan also stayed away from domestic cricket due to which some BCCI officials were angry with him. The board had also dropped Ishaan from the central contract in February 2024. Ishan Kishan is captaining the Jharkhand team in Ranji Trophy. However, now Ishaan has attracted the attention of BCCI by playing some good innings in domestic cricket. He is currently captaining Jharkhand in Ranji Trophy. He recently scored a century against Railways. Before that, the wicketkeeper batsman had scored centuries in Duleep Trophy and Buchi Babu Memorial Tournament. In such a situation, if Ishan does well on this tour, he can return to the senior team of Team India. It is believed that if Ishaan is successful in making a mark in Australia, he can also return to the senior Indian team. Apart from Gaikwad-Eshwaran, India A team also has an opening batsman like Sai Sudarshan. Any one of these three can be included as an opening batsman in the senior team. In fact, captain Rohit Sharma is expected to take a break during one of the first two Test matches due to personal reasons. Two matches will be played between India A and Australia A. The first match will be held in Mackay from 31 October and the second in Melbourne from 7 November.

In the first test, India could not defend the target of 107 runs and in the end they had to face defeat by 8 wickets. In the Bengaluru Test, R Ashwin, Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja together took seven wickets, but during this period the economy rate of all three was the biggest cause of concern.

Dinesh Karthik gave a big statement regarding the spinners of Team India.

I think the conditions in Pune will be better for these three and you will see Ashwin and Jadeja performing well in Pune. Let us tell you that the second match of the Test series between India and New Zealand will be played in Pune from 24th October.

IND vs NZ: Five reasons which became the reason for Team India’s defeat, one decision of Rohit Sharma ruined the game
New Zealand defeated India by 8 wickets in the first test match. IND vs NZ (Photo Source: Getty Images) Team India, captained by Rohit Sharma, had to face a shameful defeat by 8 wickets in the Test played against New Zealand in Bengaluru. With this victory, New Zealand took a 1-0 lead in the three-match Test series. In this match, India set a target of only 107 runs for the Kiwi team, which they easily achieved on the fifth day at the loss of 2 wickets. Now the question in everyone’s mind is that where did Team India go wrong in this match and why did it lose this match, let us tell you. IND vs NZ 5 Reasons Why India Lost First Test Match (Five reasons why Team India lost the first test against New Zealand) 1. Rohit Sharma’s wrong decision on the toss. When the toss of this match took place on the second day of the Test match, there were overcast conditions. Not a single ball was bowled on the first day due to rain. At the same time, when the game started on the second day, Rohit took a wrong decision after winning the toss. India chose to bat and the entire team was bundled out for only 46 runs. Five players including Virat Kohli could not even open their accounts. Rohit himself later admitted that there was a mistake in taking the decision after the toss. Rohit said after the first day’s play, “As a captain, I am sad to see the score of 46 runs because the decision to bat first was mine. But one or two bad decisions are made every year.” 2. Conway’s innings proved costly for India After India were bowled out cheaply in the first innings, New Zealand opener Devon Conway gave trouble to the Indian bowlers. Conway played an inning of 91 runs in 105 balls with the help of 11 fours and 3 sixes. He made a partnership of 67 runs for the first wicket with captain Tom Latham (15). Conway then took over the innings with Will Young (33). Both of them added 75 runs for the second wicket and put pressure on the host team. 3. Racine-Saudi partnership Apart from Conway, Rachin Ravindra (134 in 157 balls), who came to bat at number four, troubled the Indian bowlers. Rachin made a 39-run partnership with Daryl Mitchell (18) for the fourth wicket. However, when Tim Southee (65) came to support Rachin, both of them made a partnership of 137 runs for the eighth wicket. Thanks to the partnership of both, New Zealand scored 402 in the first innings. If India had managed to break this partnership early, then perhaps New Zealand’s innings could have been reduced to below 300 and perhaps the result of the match could have been different. 4. Rahul and Jadeja failed in the second innings also In the second innings of the test match, India scored 462 runs on the board due to the excellent batting of Sarfaraz Khan (150), Rishabh Pant…
