Ishan Kishan not included in the team: The Indian team has been announced for the T20 and ODI series for the upcoming tour of Sri Lanka. Middle-order batsman Shreyas Iyer has returned to the team. He has been included in the ODI format. Shreyas Iyer, who performed brilliantly in the World Cup last year, did not get a place in the team. He was sued for distancing himself from domestic cricket. Therefore he did not even get a central contract. Something similar happened with wicketkeeper and batsman Ishan Kishan. Now Iyer has returned to the ODI team. But Kishan was ignored again.
Ishan has not played for India for 8 months
With Gautam Gambhir becoming the coach, good days have come for Shreyas Iyer. Under his captaincy, Kolkata Knight Riders won the IPL title this year. Gautam Gambhir was the coach of this team. At the same time, this is not the case with Ishan Kishan. It seems that he is nowhere on the radar of the selectors. Ishan last played for India in November 2023. He was last seen in a T20 match against Australia in Guwahati.
During the South Africa tour, Isha had asked for a break due to fatigue. After this he also stayed away from domestic cricket. During this time Kishan trained with Hardik Pandya in Vadodara. And then played for Mumbai Indians under his captaincy. Now it is likely that Kishan will be able to return only after the next domestic season. Playing only IPL is proving to be harmful for him.
The board will give maximum importance to the performance of domestic cricket
The BCCI said in a statement that the board will continue to monitor the availability and participation of players in the upcoming domestic cricket season 2024-25. Assam's Ryan Paragon has benefited from his excellent performance in the Vijay Hazare Trophy last year. Where he scored seven half-centuries. The national selection committee will give maximum importance to the performance in domestic cricket. In such a situation, Ishan Kishan can prove himself again.
