Ishan Kishan will not be in the playing XI of the Indian cricket team due to the return of KL Rahul in Asia Cup 2023

KL Rahul and Ishan Kishan: In the Asia Cup, Team India will play its next match against Pakistan on 10 September. In this match, a big change can be seen in India’s playing XI as a wicketkeeper. The team’s main wicket-keeper batsman Rahul has returned. Rahul had missed the first two matches of the Asia Cup due to swallowing. Now that he has returned, it is almost certain that Ishaan Kishan will be dropped from the playing XI.

In the absence of Rahul, Ishaan played as a wicketkeeper in both the opening matches. In the match played against Pakistan, Ishaan played a brilliant inning of 82 runs while batting at number five. However, despite this, Ishaan may have to sit on the bench in the match against Pakistan on 10 September as KL Rahul is India’s first choice wicketkeeper.

KL Rahul sweating profusely in the nets

Rahul is practicing hard in the nets to play his first match in the Asia Cup. According to media reports, Rahul sweated profusely even in the optional practice session and batted for the longest time. Rahul will handle the number five position in the team. Rahul faced both right and left arm bowlers in the nets.
