Ishan Kishan:
Rishabh Pant’s skipper in the Under 19 World and contemporary from Jharkhand is also more or less anticipated to fare well this season. Although not as successful as Pant, Ishan has also managed to gain a fearsome reputation with the bat despite being a teenager.
Ishan also benefitted from his performances at the under – 19 World Cup last year and landed an IPL contract with the newly formed franchise Gujarat Lions. Unfortunately, he could get only five games. But, what makes his appearance this year more exciting is his current form in the domestic circuit.
In the recently concluded Ranji Trophy, Kishan played a clinical role in taking Jharkhand to their first ever knocks stage appearance, scoring 799 runs in 10 matches at an average of 83.92. These stats are surely impressive.
