Ishan Kishan failed to contribute with his batting in the 2nd T20, but he gave valuable insights to Hardik Pandya in the match, which resulted in Umran Malik taking a big wicket. Ishan Kishan’s suggestion from behind the wicket in the 2nd T20 against Sri Lanka was completely on point, and he helped India pick wickets at crucial moments.
Indian cricket fans were mesmerised when Ishan Kishan pulled off a Dhoni move by advising Hardik Pandya to bring on Umran Malik on the attack against Bhanuka Rajapaksa. His suggestion was completely on point, as Hardik Pandya brought on Umran Malik against Rajapaksa, and the bowler bowled an absolute ripper to get rid of the batter.
Recently, Ishan Kishan blasted a double century against Bangladesh in ODIs. He took a great catch in the first T20 against Sri Lanka and showcased his abilities as a wicketkeeper.
