إيشان كيشان “راح” من قبل بقية الهند في كأس إيران، وتقدم دروف جوريل في المقدمة

When the Indian management decided to release Dhruv Jurel, you knew that Ishan Kishan would be in trouble. The southpaw, who’d decided to skip participating in the domestic season earlier in the year, has been trying hard to make his way back to the Indian cricket team. The BCCI had already directed him and others that the only pathway was success in domestic cricket. 

He’d started his comeback trail in the Buchi Babu tournament and then scored a hundred in the Duleep Trophy 2024 and was subsequently named in ROI’s squad. However, Rohit Sharma and Gautam Gambhir’s decision to give match time to Jurel, India’s 2nd choice wicketkeeper behind Rishabh Pant, has led to Kishan sitting out in the Mumbai vs ROI match in the Irani Cup 2024. Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad had no choice but to play Jurel over Kishan in what is a stacked 15-member squad.
