Batting at No. With his monumental knock, Kishan became only the third batter from East Zone to score a double century in the Duleep Trophy, joining Arun Lal and Saba Karim. Ishan Kishan was in his element for East Zone in the Duleep Trophy final against South Zone in Chennai on Monday.
Ishan Kishan also became the first East Zone captain-wicketkeeper to score a double century in a Duleep Trophy final, according to an Instagram post by Star Sports India. Overall, Kishan became the seventh batter to score a double century in a Duleep Trophy final.
East Zone’s innings was opened by Vaibhav Sooryavanshi , who scored 44 off 37 balls. Because this is not just technique, this is not just temperament, this is also match fitness.
Once you are set, you have to learn how to play a long innings,” Razdan said on commentary. During the match, former India player Vivek Razdan had a message for Sooryavanshi. “Sooryavanshi sahab, now you have to learn from players like Ishan Kishan. “Every person who is present here at this time stood up and applauded this innings. To stay out there for so long in such heat and play an innings like this. What an innings by Ishan Kishan.”
