Ishan Kishan Given Leeway to Rejoin Team India After Participating in Cricket Amid Personal Break
Head Coach Rahul Dravid Clarifies Stance on Left-Handed Keeper-Batter's Return
Ishan Kishan, who had asked for a vacation due to personal circumstances, is only permitted to rejoin Team India after participating in "some cricket." Head coach Rahul Dravid's message to the left-handed keeper-batter was quite obvious.
The main idea was that we were pleased to grant his request for a respite. I didn't state that he must play cricket in his country. I had told him to go play some cricket when he was ready and to come back.
"He has the option. He is not being coerced into doing anything. Not that we haven't been in contact with him; we are in contact with him.
"He hasn't begun playing yet. Therefore, we are unable to contemplate it at this time since it's possible that he is not ready. Dravid said, "He chooses when he wants to be ready."
