Ishan Kishan was the hero of India’s victory in Raipur T20 against New Zealand. Chasing the target of 209, when Team India’s score was 6/2, then in this difficult situation, Ishan Kishan played an inning of 76 runs in 32 balls with the help of 11 fours and 4 skyscraper sixes. Apart from him, captain Suryakumar Yadav also scored unbeaten 82 runs on 37 balls, but due to Ishan Kishan’s innings having more impact on the match, he was awarded the Player of the Match award. With this, Ishan Kishan has made a good entry in the list of players who have won the most Player of the Match awards for India in T20Is.
Maybe 300 against India… New Zealand captain trembled after seeing India’s batting.
This is the third Player of the Match award in Ishan Kishan’s T20I career. With this he has equaled players like Suresh Raina, Shreyas Iyer and Ravindra Jadeja. A total of 9 players including Ishan Kishan have won 3-3 Player of the Match awards. Apart from Ishan Kishan, there are now 17 players in this list who have won 4 or more Player of the Match awards. Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav are at the top in the list. Both these greats have played an important role in the team’s victory 16-16 times.
