Ishan Kishan was singled out by Indian captain Rohit Sharma during a press conference before the second Test against the West Indies.
When Indian captain Rohit Sharma engages with reporters at conventional press conferences, whether they are from India, England, or the Caribbean, there is never a dull moment. The Indian captain made fun of his teammate Ishan Kishan, who celebrated his 25th birthday on Tuesday, in another instance of Rohit being in his element while speaking to reporters. Youngster Kishan made his Test debut in the series opener against the West Indies, just days before spending his birthday in the Caribbean with Rohit and company.
Rohit made the humorous demand that birthday kid Kishan make a century in his next game for the visitors when speaking to reporters prior to the second Test match between India and the West Indies. What birthday present does he want? How are you, Brother Tereko? What would you like, brother? When asked about Kishan’s birthday by the reporter, Indian captain Rohit responded, “You have everything. After Rohit’s witty comment, everyone, including the reporters and even Kishan, started laughing.
India won by an innings and 141 runs, thanks to centuries from Yashasvi Jaiswal (171) and Rohit (103). “It’s a privilege to be leading the Indian team into this match; it doesn’t occur frequently. The two teams have played some of the best cricket in history. I don’t anticipate this test to be any different. It will be interesting for both teams, and I have no doubt that the Windies will recover.
