“What An Innings” – Twitter Erupts As Ishan Kishan Smashes A Stupendous Double Century In IND vs BAN 3rd ODI

The 24-year-old India National Cricket Team opening batsman Ishan Kishan played an absolutely stupendous knock and smashed a double century in the third ODI against Bangladesh National Cricket Team.

The dead rubber third ODI between the Bangla Tigers and the Men In Blue is currently underway at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium in Chattogram on Saturday, December 10. The Litton Das-led Bangladesh have already clinched the series after winning the first two ODIs and they are eyeing a Banglawash.

Ishan Kishan got the opportunity to open the innings alongside Shikhar Dhawan after captain Rohit Sharma got ruled out of the match due to a thumb injury, which he sustained while fielding in the second ODI in Mirpur.

Losing the toss and batting first, India lost the wicket of opener Shikhar Dhawan in the 5th over itself, but Kishan grabbed the opportunity with both hands and played a stellar knock.
