Looking to force his way into the Indian team again, Ishan Kishan has begun his comeback journey after going through a tumultuous period or 6 months that saw him lose his place in the team in all three formats, as well as his central contract.
Kishan who hasn’t played for India since December last year, opened up about competition within the Indian team, especially considering the form that the likes of Rishabh Pant and Sanju Samson have shown as of late, earning the selectors’ nod for T20 World Cup 2024. Samson, Jitesh Sharma and Dhruv Jurel were preferred over Kishan for the Zimbabwe series too.
“It was heartening to see Rishabh back in action. As far as competition goes, you love challenges and when you compete with all the quality cricketers, it enhances your game. And then when you make it you feel like you have earned it. I know it’s not going to be easy. But I feel competition gives you that feeling of satisfaction. I enjoy it. I don’t take any stress about it,” Kishan told the Indian Express.
The wicketkeeper batsman also said that he sees himself playing in all three formats, as was the case before he decided to take a break from cricket.
“I see myself playing in all three formats. I have done well in T20Is, ODIs and Tests as well. I want to be part of all three formats,” he said.
