Ishan Kishan vs KS Bharat: A Debate Rekindled
As India prepares to take on West Indies in another Test series, the Ishan Kishan vs KS Bharat debate is once again in the spotlight. This discussion first began during the World Test Championship (WTC) Final against Australia, and has yet to be resolved. The outcome of who will take the wicketkeeping role will be determined after a practice match.
Bharat’s Performance Behind the Wickets
Bharat has done a commendable job in his role as wicketkeeper, yet his batting has failed to impress. In the WTC Final against Australia, he scored 5 and 23 runs in both innings respectively. In the preceding four Test matches against Australia, he managed to accumulate only 101 runs in six innings. His lack of contribution in the lower order has been a considerable setback for India’s performance against Australia.
Kishan’s Potential
On the other hand, Kishan is seen as a Rishabh Pant-like batsman, who is not afraid to take on the opposition.
Conclusion
The Ishan Kishan vs KS Bharat debate is an ongoing one, and the final decision on who will take the wicketkeeping role will be revealed after a practice match. Bharat’s performance behind the wickets has been satisfactory, however his batting has been underwhelming. Kishan is seen as a potential game-changer, and India will be hoping he can live up to the expectations.
