India’s fast bowler Harshit Rana made a notable debut in the first match of the three-match ODI series against England, taking a total of three wickets. This achievement is part of a successful streak for Rana, who has recently debuted in all three formats for Team India. His debut in T20, in particular, has been a topic of discussion among fans and cricket experts. Rana was included in the team for the fourth match of the T20 series against England, replacing Shivam Dubey, a decision that was criticized by some former players.
In response to questions about the controversy surrounding his inclusion in the team, Rana stated that he does not pay attention to such issues. He emphasized that his focus is on performing well on the field and contributing to the team’s success. Rana also shared his experience in his ODI debut match, noting that the format presents unique challenges, particularly in bowling 10 overs. However, he believes that consistent practice can help overcome these challenges.
Rana’s debut match was also notable for the special record he achieved, becoming the first Team India bowler to take three wickets in the innings in his debut match in all three formats. He has taken 4 wickets in 2 Tests, and 3-3 wickets in one ODI and T20 match. Following the ODI series against England, Rana has been included in the reserve player’s list for the Champions Trophy 2025 as a backup for Jaspreet Bumrah.
