Kishan’s Comeback After a Challenging Phase
This century marks an important comeback for Kishan, who faced criticism after deciding to take a break at the end of the 2023 season. His decision led to his exclusion from the T20 World Cup 2024 squad and the loss of his BCCI central contract. BCCI dropped Ishan Kishan because he was unavailable for red-ball matches in domestic cricket. However, he made a notable return in the IPL, scoring 320 runs in 14 matches, including a half-century.
Ishan Kishan later explained his decision to take a break, mentioning that he was going through a tough time and needed to step away to clear his mind. His recent performance indicates that he is back on track and ready to make a strong case for his return to the Indian team.
