INDvsWI Ishan Kishan Ishan Kishan Indian wicket-keeper batsman Ishan Kishan came out with Rishabh Pant’s name written on his bat and scored the first half-century of his Test career in the second Test against West Indies in Trinidad.
Captain Rohit Sharma declared the innings only after his half-century. India declared the second innings at 181 for two on the fourth day of the second cricket Test against West Indies, setting a target of 365 runs for the hosts.
Captain Rohit Sharma scored 57 while Ishan Kishan scored 52. Earlier, in response to India’s 438, the West Indies team could only manage 255 runs in the first innings and fell behind by 183 runs.
Earlier, when Ishaan Kishan was at the crease in the first Test, captain Rohit Sharma declared the innings after his first run. Interestingly, Ishan Kishan wrote wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant’s name on his bat, the RP17 he played too, just like Rishabh Pant. Ishaan Kishan scored 52 runs in 34 balls with the help of 4 fours and 2 sixes.
Significantly, Ishaan Kishan has got a chance in place of wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant. In such a situation, the fans liked the honor given by junior Ishaan Kishan to his senior partner Rishabh Pant in this era of competition.
That’s a smashing way to bring your maiden Test 50*@ishankishan51

Such has been the performance in international cricket
Ishan Kishan is a wicket-keeper batsman who hails from Dhoni’s hometown Ranchi. He has impressed the audience immensely in IPL. Kishan plays for Rohit Sharma’s team, Mumbai Indians in the IPL. His T-20 debut took place in 2021 against England at the Narendra Modi Stadium. Kishan scored 56 runs in 32 balls in that match. Since then, he has played a total of 27 T20Is, scoring 653 runs (highest: 89) at an average of 25.12. In one-day cricket, he has scored 510 runs in 14 matches, including a double half-century.
Although Ishan Kishan was also included in the squad for the World Test Championship final, against Australia, the team management preferred a comparatively experienced KS Bharath. But now the team management wants to use Ishaan Kishan in white.
