Ishan admitted that he was surprised by the way the young player batted. His hitting put huge pressure on SRH bowlers. However, they got some relief after Saqib Hussain had the RR opener out LBW.
Ishan Kishan said on JioHotstar, “I was just telling him the craziness with which he was batting and how he was hitting. Sometimes, you get scared even thinking what the scorecard could have looked like if he had stayed for a few more overs.”
So, taking his wicket was important for us. It was 228; It could have easily been 258 runs. Cricket is all about comebacks. “We got him out and made a little comeback there.”
Speaking about their funny exchange, the Bihar boy revealed that he light-heartedly told Vaibhav that the next time they play against each other, he should play it a little easier.
“That’s what I told him: ‘When I’m playing against you, please be a little easy on my team. I know all your secrets and inside stories,'” Ishaan joked.
Ishan Kishan tells the story of his return to India
Meanwhile, Ishan Kishan made a strong comeback in Team India for the T20 series against New Zealand earlier this year and also got a chance in the ICC T20 World Cup 2026. He made this comeback after a brilliant domestic season, where he led Jharkhand to win the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy.
During that tournament, he scored more than 500 runs and was one of the top performers. Talking about his journey, Ishaan made it clear that he had not thought much about being out of the team at first; Instead, he focused on improving his game and becoming more consistent.
“When I was not playing and was out of the team, I told myself I can’t cry or be angry about it. That’s the easiest thing for any player to do. It might get you some sympathy from people; you might even feel good about it, but it won’t take you anywhere,” the SRH star said.
Ishan further added, “The only thing that could get me back into the reckoning was runs. So, I just wanted to improve my game and score as many runs as I could, even if it meant hitting more sixes than any other batsman.”
“Only consistent run scoring can bring you back into the team. If 300 runs in a season is not enough, score 400 runs; if not that, score 500 runs. At the end of the day, cricket is our daily bread.”
