Made my 70 runs less – Ishan Kishan

Ishan Kishan lost his wicket in this match while trying to hit sixes. Ishaan hit 2 consecutive sixes in the 37th over of the innings. Then captain Shubman Gill asked him to try to hit 6 sixes in the over. After this, Ishaan lost his wicket while trying to play a big shot on the next ball. Now what BCCI has posted. In that, Ishaan was seen jokingly saying to Gill that you have reduced my 70 runs. Gill also laughs and says that I had to kill you anyway, then Ishaan says absolutely 100 percent.

There was banter between the two players regarding the strike as well.

Apart from this, joking was also seen between the two players regarding the strike. Actually, when Ishaan and Gill were batting, at one time only Ishaan Kishan had the strike, because after completing his fifty, he was scoring runs rapidly. On this Gill asked Ishaan, why did you not give me strike for 5-6 overs? Was this a plan? To which Ishan Kishan said, “I had no plan not to give you strike. I wanted to play big shots against the spinners.” Let us tell you that in this match, there was a big partnership of 224 runs for the third wicket between Gill and Ishan, on the basis of which Team India scored a huge score of 402 runs and the Afghanistan team could not achieve that target.
