Bangalore, 13/2: Ishan Kishan Who does not know this name today. He has been the most expensive player so far in the IPL 2022 Auction. He was bought by the 5-time champion Mumbai Indians for a record Rs 15.25 crore. He was part of Mumbai in the last season as well, but the team did not retain him. The most surprising thing for Ishaan is that he was born in Bihar, but he has not played from this state till date. He plays for Jharkhand in the first class tournament and from here he also got recognition. He was even expelled from school due to his passion for cricket, but did not give up on the field. He was also the captain of the Indian team in the Under-19 World Cup in 2016. The team was also the runner up then.
Ishan Kishan is known for his aggressive batting. In IPL 2020, he scored the highest 516 runs for Mumbai Indians. After this, he was also successful in making a place in Team India. Not only this, he also landed in the T20 World Cup 2021. Kishan gave the credit of his excellent performance to the current Rahul Dravid of Team India. Ishaan had told that he had talked to Rahul Dravid about his batting. Dravid had advised him that he has to improve his off-side game to play big innings. Ishaan followed his advice and today he is one of the successful batsmen.
Elder brother left the field for Ishaan
Due to an incident that happened 15 years ago today, Ishan Kishan was successful in reaching here. The team of Bihar went to Mumbai to play in the School Games Federation tournament. There were also two brothers in the team. Elder brother Raj Kishan was the opener, so he could perform well. At the same time, younger brother Ishaan did not get a chance. The younger brother was disappointed, but after that the elder brother left the cricket field. That is, the sacrifice of the elder brother has made Ishan Kishan the champion player today.
thank you for the trust
Ishan Kishan looked quite happy after the record bidding. He said, ‘There have been many memories associated with the Mumbai team. Thanks once again for the confidence shown by the team management. We will meet soon. I am missing the team. It is known that before the auction, the team had retained fast bowlers Jasprit Bumrah, Kieron Pollard and Suryakumar Yadav apart from captain Rohit Sharma. Ishaan is currently associated with Team India for the West Indies series.
