rollingstoned Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Ishan Kishan Ignores Team India Head Coach Rahul Dravid’s Advice To Play Ranji Trophy Team India wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan has reportedly ignored head coach Rahul Dravid's advice again ahead of IND vs ENG The current absence of Ishan Kishan, the wicketkeeper-batsman for the Indian team, is notable. While initially included in the squad for the South Africa tour, Ishan Kishan took a hiatus from cricket, citing mental stress, as reported by sources. Following this, he has not been part of the team, even missing out on the T20 series against Afghanistan. In response, Rahul Dravid had suggested in a press conference that Ishan Kishan should focus on playing domestic cricket, and a return to the national team would be contingent on his performance in that arena. Ishan Kishan’s Ignoring Dravid’s Advice? The prospects of Ishan Kishan making a comeback to Team India are increasingly challenging. Despite being slated to play for Jharkhand in the Ranji Trophy, Ishan has yet to join the team. Although Rahul Dravid advised him to demonstrate fitness and participate in domestic cricket, Ishan has been conspicuously absent from the Jharkhand squad since his initial Ranji match As a result, the speculations regarding Ishan’s return have gained momentum. Team India has enlisted three wicketkeeper-batsmen, KS Bharat, KL Rahul, and Dhruv Jurel, for the upcoming Test series against England. Recent reports suggested that Ishan Kishan faced disciplinary action from the BCCI for misbehavior, resulting in his exclusion from the team. Disputing these claims, coach Rahul Dravid clarified in a press conference that all reports related to Ishan’s misconduct are untrue. According to Dravid, Ishan had taken a break from cricket due to mental stress. Nevertheless, despite glimpses of Ishan Kishan engaging in on-field exercises a few days ago, raising hopes of a return, he has now exacerbated his difficulties by missing his first match in the Ranji Trophy. express bowling 1 Link to comment
neel roy Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 If you are earning 15 crores a year since last 2 yeats plus all match fees and contract etc your net worth is around 60- 65 crores.. thats going to be 100 crores by 2026. If money only is your motivation then Kishan is saving himself from injuries before ipl. But again who knows we may be guessing.. motivation comes in different forms. For some its money for some pride.. SRT100 1 Link to comment

There is a limit to which you can carry water bottles despite performing in almost every opportunity you get. harpicP, rollingstoned and SRT100 1 2 Link to comment

neel roy Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Kishan was chosen in wtc and then windies series. He played 2 out of the 3 tests. So actually he didnt even have to wait. So the cross format chances dont hold true. in odis and t20s yes. I agree. Link to comment

With rise of Rinku Jaiswal... No spot for him at present. Link to comment

No spot for him at present. Totally disagree on Rutu and Tilak is yet to do anything worthwhile. Ishan scored a double 100 in 32 overs in BD where our top order was fukcing dogsh!t in first 2 matches. Next match dropped. Stood there when Shaheen, Rauf were blowing us away in Kandy. Slowly dropped from the ODI team. Scored 2 50s in T20Is after WC and dropped. Dravid is throwing him out only to accomodate KL somehow. Because Jitesh ko ye aise bhi 1-2 failure pe nikaal denge, Ganju vaise bhi is format me kuch karta nahi. rollingstoned, Bigg Brother, SRT100 and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment

Last 2 matches before Odi world cup. Tri series against australia. Ishan and Surya both played in middle order Ishan Kishan 18 (26) 31 (18) Surya Kumar Yadav. 50 (49)Remains not out and leads india to victory with Iyer after Kishan gets out 72 (37) India scores 399 instead of 340 odd As a rational selector who will you choose in middle order? Kishan after failing in middle order went on to open in two WC matches with a Duck and painstaking 40 odd. Sky did not even play those matches.. First match in which Sky played his innings ( in MO) gave us a fighting total against england.. Edited January 20 by neel roy Link to comment
Lord Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Should be banned for few IPL games just for discipline Guy had golden opportunity to take Pant's place but is showing bad attitude. TheWall, cricspirit and Kothili 3 Link to comment
tweaker Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 IPL teams are dictating terms to the national selectors. If he plays for India A without playing for his Ranji side even after Rahul Dravid suggestions, this set a bad precedent. Suhaan 1 Link to comment
Bigg Brother Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 His life, his rules. Stop giving so much importance to Ranji and County games. Nothing wrong in that. Dravid' s advice and coaching has been doing zilch for Indian team so he can choose to follow it or not. vivek04, Number, tweaker and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment

Madness of Indian Cricket, you reward a match winning performance by dropping a player for an uncle. Yet our Uncles can have multiple failures in a row and still be selected. Just look at how poor Kohli batted at one stage where Ashwin was out performing him in Test cricket as a batsman. tweaker and Number 2 Link to comment
singhvivek141 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Maybe Kishan don't see himself as a Test keeper..or don't want to play Tests. There are multiple cricketers around the world who are happy playing white ball format & not interested in Tests... Anyway Pant should be back by end of this year (hopefully). Kishan won't be needed there then as Jurel is also a capable keeper batter (unlike Bharat). Link to comment
putrevus Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Dravid screwed this kid up. First he drops him after scoring 200 in odis and now he is not even in test squad after displacing Bharat. rollingstoned 1 Link to comment
