Delhi: 29 -year -old Bengal opener Abhimanyu Ishwaran has been doing well in domestic cricket for years. He has been a part of the Indian Test team, but has not been able to debut till now. He was close to his debut on a tour of Australia, but went against him to score just 36 runs in four innings against Australia A. Even in the absence of Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul was made an opener and Devdutt Padikkal got a chance at number 3.
Now when senior players like Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravichandran Ashwin have retired, Abhimanyu can get a chance to debut on England.
On the selection of Ishvaran Father’s statement
Abhimanyu Ishwaran will captain the India A team against England Lions. His father Ranganathan Ishwaran believes that if Abhimanyu had got a chance to play in IPL, he would have made his debut for India long ago.
He said, “If Abhimanyu had got a chance to play in the IPL, he would play for Team India long ago. IPL gets more recognition. Abhimanyu is of calm nature, he would not run in the ground after scoring a century. Perhaps the same things go against them.”
Ranganathan further said, “Abhimanyu’s performance has been very strong. He has scored 7,674 runs in 101 first class matches. His average is 48.87. The experience of playing in countries like New Zealand, Australia, England and West Indies makes him different from the rest of the players.”
Special preparation for England tour
Ranganathan Ishwaran told how Abhimanyu is preparing for England tour. He said, “Abhimanyu wakes up at 5:30 am and faces the balls of fast bowlers for many hours. Is.”
