Following the ‘Play Domestic Cricket’ message from Rahul Dravid, Ishan Kishan’s state association said he “hasn’t contacted”

Ishan Kishan is the only member of the Indian cricket squad who is in the news a lot these days. He traveled with the Indian team to South Africa. But Ishan Kishan went home for a vacation in the middle of the tour. Subsequently, he was left off the India versus. Afghanistan Twenty20 International team roster. Rumors and rumors suggested that this may have been because of a disciplinary problem. Rahul Dravid, the coach of the Indian cricket team, denied these assertions but said that Ishan Kishan would need to play domestic cricket before he can return.

“No, most definitely not (no punishment). There was not a choice for Ishan Kishan. In South Africa, Ishan Kishan asked for a break, and we acknowledged, supported, and agreed. He has not yet offered himself for consideration. At the pre-match press conference held in front of the first Twenty20 international between Afghanistan and India, Rahul Dravid said, “I am confident that he will play domestic cricket and make himself available for selection when he is available.”

The left-hander is now unable to be picked for the England Tests later this month, when Kona Bharat is expected to start as the first keeper, after missing seven weeks of cricket action.

Debasish Chakraborty, the secretary of the Jharkhand State Cricket Association (JSCA), responded negatively when PTI asked whether Kishan has made himself available for the ongoing Ranji Trophy.

“No, we haven’t heard from Ishan or received any information on his availability. He will enter the playing XI whenever he informs us, Chakraborty told PTI.

Although Dravid refuted the rumors, Shreyas Iyer’s non-selection for the T20I series against the Afghans had also contributed to the player indiscipline discourse.

“There is no connection whatsoever between Shreyas Iyer’s case and any disciplinary action. He just missed out on it. The squad has a large number of batsmen. The former Indian captain said, “He did not play in the T20s in the SA as well.

According to Dravid, it was difficult to fit every player into the starting eleven or squad.

“It is regrettable since he is a good player, but it is difficult to accommodate every batsman into the playing 11 or squad. At least during my conversation with the selectors, no discipline-related issues were brought up,” Dravid said.
