Highlights
There will be a clash between India and Pakistan on September 10.
The match was washed out on September 2 due to rain.
New Delhi. Rain has spoiled the India and Pakistan (IND vs PAK) adventure on September 2. But after 2 days, once again a fierce battle will be played between two hardcore teams. In the first match, the Indian team entered the field with two major changes. In which Shardul Thakur entered instead of Mohammad Shami. At the same time, in the absence of KL Rahul, young batsman Ishan Kishan was brought in to bat in the middle order.
As for the match against Nepal, Mohammad Shami’s return was due to Jasprit Bumrah’s return home. However, now Bumrah has returned to Sri Lanka for the match against Pakistan. In such a situation, this time Shardul Thakur may have to sit on the bench. Team India Moh. Shami, Jasprit Bumrah and Mohd. Siraj’s pace can come into play with the attack. Apart from this, among the spinners, Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav will be seen handling the front. Apart from this, a big change can be seen in batting regarding the middle order.
Will Ishan Kishan get a chance?
Team India’s top order looked completely ruined against Pakistan. After which Ishan Kishan led the middle order and played a brilliant innings of 82 runs. Now the question is, if KL Rahul returns in the next match, will Ishan have to sit out? Choosing between the two batsmen will be no less than a big challenge for Rohit Sharma. If we look at Ishan Kishan’s last 4 ODIs, he has scored a half century in all four matches, be it opening or batting in the middle order. KL Rahul has not played a single match since his return from injury, so fielding him directly in such a big match would be nothing less than a big risk.
