IND vs WI 1st Test: Watch Ishan Kishan caught sledging on stump-mic, instructing Virat Kohli on field placement
Ishan Kishan had a good outing on his Test debut against the West Indies on Wednesday. He was chosen as the wicket-keeper batsman in place of KS Bharat, who had been struggling with the bat in recent Tests.
Kishan repaid the faith and showed good composure behind the wickets and grabbed a couple of good catches.
However, what caught the eye of fans on social media, was his chatter behind the stumps.
Kishan was often entertaining and insightful and provided fans with a glimpse into his personality and his interactions with his teammates.
At one stage he was heard asking Virat Kohli (standing at slip) and Yashasvi Jaiswal (silly point) to alter their positions slightly and in another expressed glee at the turn R Ashwin was able to generate.
