Ishan Kishan’s Comeback Derailed: BCCI Snubs Him for Second Time
Team India: Changes Made Ahead of Zimbabwe Series
The Indian team, fresh from their T20 World Cup 2024 title win, is set to take on Zimbabwe in a series. The BCCI has made some changes to the squad, with Sanju Samson included for the first two matches. Jitesh Sharma has been added to the team, while Sanju Samson, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Shivam Dubey have been left out. However, the biggest surprise is the omission of Ishan Kishan from the team.
Ishan Kishan Missed Out on T20 World Cup Selection
When the Indian team was selected for the T20 World Cup 2024, Rishabh Pant was the first choice wicketkeeper. Despite scoring runs for Delhi Capitals in the IPL, Ishan Kishan was overlooked. Sanju Samson, who batted brilliantly and captained well for Rajasthan Royals, was preferred over Ishan Kishan.
Ishan Kishan Snubbed for Zimbabwe Series
Ishan Kishan was expected to make a comeback for the Zimbabwe series, given that Rishabh Pant and Sanju Samson would rest after the World Cup. However, the selectors preferred Dhruv Jurel and Sanju Samson over Ishan Kishan.
No Entry for Ishan Kishan Despite Team Changes
The BCCI made some changes to the team on Tuesday, with Sanju Samson not available for the first two matches. Jitesh Sharma, Harshit Rana, and Sai Sudarshan were added to the team, while Ishan Kishan was overlooked. It seems that the selectors have turned their backs on Ishan Kishan, making a comeback difficult for him.
