Suryaa Sports Desk: The Indian team suffered a severe setback in the ongoing five-match T20 series against New Zealand. Decisive third T20 against Kiwis... The Indian team suffered a severe setback in the ongoing five-match T20 series against New Zealand. The Board of Control for Cricket in India has officially announced that the young wicket-keeper batsman Ishan Kishan has been ruled out for the decisive third T20 match against the Kiwis. The board clarified that this decision was taken as he suffered a muscle injury in the right thigh while batting in the first match and has not yet achieved full match fitness. Although medically termed as a low-grade right adductor strain, the management is not taking any risks with the player's long-term health in mind.
In the first match against New Zealand, Ishan Kishan was dismissed after scoring just one run, but was completely ruled out of the second T20I. Now that he is not available even for the third match, there is a possibility of some impact on the batting composition of Team India. However, the BCCI sources are confident that Ishan Kishan's recovery from the injury is satisfactory and he will regain full fitness soon. The issue of playing in the next matches will be clarified only after his recovery, which is under the supervision of medical experts. In the wake of Ishan Kishan's absence, the board said that wicketkeeper batsman Kumar Kusagra is continuing with the team to fill his place in the team. Whether the young sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who replaced Ishaan in the last match, will get a chance in the third match will be known at the time of the match.
Although India is currently on a strong start in this series, it is worrying that a key player will miss consecutive matches due to injury. Team India is determined to strengthen their lead in the series by winning the third T20 match to be held in Wellington.
