I already told everyone that I will start my career with six : Ishan Kishan
Ishan Kishan opened the secret: Indian batsman said – I told everyone, no matter who is the bowler, I will start my career with six only.
India’s wicket-keeper batsman Ishan Kishan has opened the secret about hitting a six on the first ball of the debut ODI. He said that before going to bat on the field, I had told everyone in the dressing room that no matter who the bowler is, I will start my career with a six. Ishaan scored 59 runs in 42 balls in his first ODI match. He became the first Indian batsman to score a fifty in the debut innings of T20 and ODI.
Ishaan said during a conversation with former cricketer Ajay Jadeja after the match that everyone in the dressing room knew about Six. I told everyone about it. I knew the day was in my favour. It was my birthday too and the pitch was also batting worthy. I had thought that whatever happens, I will bat aggressively. All the players wanted a return gift from me. So I gave him a birthday treat in the form of this innings.
