Ishan Kishan, a wicketkeeper-batsman currently out of the Indian team, has signed with Nottinghamshire Cricket Club for two County Championship matches. 'Welcome to Trent Bridge, Ishan Kishan,' the club wrote on social media platform 'X' while announcing his addition. He will feature at Trent Bridge against Yorkshire and at Taunton against Somerset, replacing Kyle Verrin in the team. Ishan Kishan was playing for Kavya Maran-owned SRH in IPL 2025, where he couldn't impress with his performance.
Ishan Kishan has expressed his excitement about playing county cricket for the first time in England. This opportunity provides them with an excellent platform to play in different conditions and develop skills, which is considered essential for sustainability in international cricket.
According to Nottinghamshire's official website, Ishaan said he is thrilled to be playing in England and wants to use this opportunity to hone his skills. He said playing at a historic ground like Trent Bridge, which is famous around the world, would be a source of pride for him.
Team head coach Peter Moores also expressed his happiness over Ishaan joining the team. He said Ishaan is extremely excited about playing in county cricket and he is a hard-hitting middle-order batsman. He also mentioned that Ishaan is continuously improving in red-ball cricket as well.
Ishan Kishan comes with his excellent first-class record in county cricket, reflecting his ability and experience in the longer format. In domestic cricket, he has proved his ability by scoring consistent runs in difficult conditions.
Ishan Kishan has been one of India's vital cogs in the current white-ball squads.
Ishan Kishan made his India debut in 2021 and has a ODI double century to his name.
