Shikhar Dhawan is currently enjoying a break from his hectic schedule in cricket. Playing for Punjab Kings in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022, the left-handed opener scored 460 runs in 14 matches to end up as the eighth-highest scorer in the franchise cricket league. He had an average of 38.33 and a strike-rate of 122.66. However, he did not find a place in the India squad for the recently-concluded South Africa series. He does not even feature in the India T20I squad that will play against Ireland later this month.
Sri Lanka on Monday announced a 19-member women's squad for the white-ball series, comprising three ODIs and as many T20Is, against India starting in Dambulla from June 23. Skipper Chamari Athapaththu will lead both the squads, which include vital players like Hasini Perera, Nilakshi de Silva, Oshadi Ranasinghe and Inoka Ranaweera. Vishmi Gunaratne, who is yet to make her ODI debut for Sri Lanka, also finds a place in both the squads.
Ishan Kishan was the top-scorer in the just-concluded India-South Africa T20I series among both the teams. The left-handed opener scored 206 runs in five matches at an average of 41.20. He had a strike-rate of 150.36 and scored two half-centuries as well. However, the position he is playing, is a crowded place in the Indian cricket team in T20Is. There is Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul among others in the openers' slots. Kishan is also a contender for that slot. Former India pacer Aashish Nehra believes that “numbers don't tell the whole story” and that Kishan needs to do more.
