Though ishan kishan

Though Ishan Kishan: Though Ishan Kishan didn’t get to add to his two appearances in the recent Men’s ODI World Cup, the explosive wicketkeeper-batter was quick to make an impact in the T20I series opener against Australia, through his 39-ball 58, hitting two fours and five sixes to propel India for hunting down 209, their highest-ever chase in T20Is.

Once Shubman Gill recovered from dengue, Kishan was relegated to the sidelines and while being on the bench, the left-handed batter revealed how working on his game during the World Cup played a role in acing the chase against Australia.

"It goes back a little to during the (ODI) World Cup, when I wasn't playing those matches. I asked myself before every practice session, 'What is important for me right now? What I could do?' I practised a lot in the nets. I was constantly talking to the coaches about the game, how to take the game deep and how to target certain bowlers," he said in the post-match press conference.
