CRICKET
Coming up to open the batting in the absence of Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul, Ishan Kishan took all the South African bowlers to the cleaners.
Ishan Kishan had a modest IPL 2022 with Mumbai Indians but he was retained in the Indian T20I squad as the likes of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah were rested for this series. Ishan Kishan grabbed this opportunity with both hands as he scored a quickfire 76 runs off 48 deliveries during the 1st T20I match against South Africa.

Kishan looked scratchy at first but showed the much talked about 'intent' in Indian cricket and tried to hit almost every ball out of the park. He reached his fifty in 37 balls. All hell broke loose when Maharaj came in to bowl the 13th over as Kishan went after him, scored 20 runs, and got out in the last ball of the over.
Netizens hailed Ishan Kishan for his effort, Check out some tweets below.
