"What Selectors Do Is Fair": India Batter After Asia Cup Omission

On his omission from the squad for Asia Cup 2022, Indian wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan said that it is a positive thing for him as it will push him to work hard and score more runs to make his way back into the team.

"He'll Be Disappointed": Ex-New Zealand Cricketer On Ishan Kishan Missing Asia Cup

Left-handed batter Ishan Kishan is one of the most dynamic batters going around in world cricket, and on his day, he can tear into the opposition's bowling lineup. However, the batter has been in and out of the team, and he has failed to make it to the Asia Cup squad. Team India have named a full-strength squad, that will see KL Rahul returning to the side as vice-captain after being sidelined due to injury. Former New Zealand all-rounder Scott Styris believes that Kishan would be disappointed on missing out for Asia Cup.

India's 15-member squad for the August 27-September 11 Asia Cup had many top stars like Virat Kohli and KL Rahul returning after a gap, while there were some notable omissions too. Jasprit Bumrah missed out due to injury, and another big name who was missing was left-handed opener Ishan Kishan. The big-hitting youngster has been a constant in the Indian team in recent times. However, the re-entry of opener Rahul and the presence of several other top-order options, meant that Kishan was not picked. He was not even named among the three standbys.

"I Would Be Trying To Find Every Way": Ricky Ponting Wants India To Play Both These Stars In T20 World Cup

Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting feels India should find a way to include both Rishabh Pant and Dinesh Karthik in their playing XI for the T20 World Cup. Ponting feels that both wicketkeeper-batters are in top form, and having both players in the team might benefit Team India. While Pant has been in excellent form in international cricket, Dinesh Karthik had an impressive Indian Premier League campaign with the Royal Challengers Bangalore. Ponting said that he would take Pant and Karthik over the likes of Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan.

Led by Shikhar Dhwan, Team India faces West Indies in the first ODI of a three-match series in Port of Spain on Friday.
