Bad news for Team India, star player from Kavya Maran's SRH was replacing Rishabh Pant but…
Ishan Kishan turned out for Kavya Maran's SRH in IPL 2025 season. (Photo: IANS) Team India is dealing with a spate of injuries to their top cricketer. The latest to join the list is India vice-captain Rishabh Pant, who is reportedly out for six weeks due to a fractured toe. Pant injured his toe on Day 1 of the 4th Test against England at Old Trafford in Manchester on Wednesday. The Indian vice-captain had retired hurt on 37 and is unlikely to play any more part in the fourth Test. According to a report in Indian Express newspaper, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Jharkhand wicketkeeper Ishan Kishan had been called up by the BCCI selectors to join the Indian squad in England ahead of fifth Test next week. But there is more bad news for BCCI and the Indian team as even Ishan Kishan is reportedly injured. Kishan had turned out for Nottinghamshire in a couple of matches in County Championships this year but he has got injured in an accident. Ishan Kishan injured in a scooty accident According to a report in TOI, Kishan has got injured in an accident on a scooty. 'Ishan has suffered an ankle injury and has ten stitches on his left foot after he fell from a scooty,' a source close to Ishan Kishan informed TOI. 'The selectors did reach out to Ishan, but only on Thursday. His stitches have been removed and he currently has a plaster on his left ankle,' the source added in the report. Ishan had an impressive run with Nottinghamshire this season. He notched up scores of 87 and 77 against Yorkshire and Somerset in the two matches and was also impressive behind the stumps. The SRH wicketkeeper is now back at the National Cricket Academy in Bengaluru to recover from his injuries. Ishan Kishan scored his maiden IPL century this year The 27-year-old was signed up by Kavya Maran's Sunrisers Hyderabad for Rs 11.25 crore at the IPL 2025 mega auction last year. Ishan justified the faith of SRH, scoring his maiden IPL century in their opening game of the season against Rajasthan Royals. However, he trailed off for most of the remaining season, apart from scoring 94 not out against IPL 2025 champions RCB towards the end of the season. Kishan ended up with 354 runs from 14 matches at a strike-rate of over 152. Rishabh Pant available to 'bat as per team requirements' Meanwhile, the BCCI have announced that injured Rishabh Pant will be available to bat for Team India in the fourth Test at Manchester as per the 'requirements' of the team. 'Rishabh Pant, who sustained an injury to his right foot on Day 1 of the Manchester Test, will not be performing wicket-keeping duties for the remainder of the match. Dhruv Jurel will assume the role of wicket-keeper. Despite his injury, Rishabh Pant has joined the team on Day 2 and will be available to bat as per team requirements,' a BCCI statement read.

Ishan Kishan contacted by Ajit Agarkar, BCCI to join India's Test squad in England after Rishabh Pant ruled out: Report
Ishan Kishan is set to make a dramatic return to the Indian Test squad after it is learnt that the BCCI and its chairman of selectors, Ajit Agarkar, want the India wicketkeeper to join the Test squad in England after Rishabh Pant was ruled out of the remainder of the series. Ishan last played for India in November of 2023, in a T20I against Australia and has the experience of two Test matches – against West Indies earlier that year. Nonetheless, with Dhruv Jurel expected to take over keeping duties in Manchester and replace Pant for the final Test at The Oval, Ishan will be the backup keeper. Ishan Kishan is set for his return to the Indian team after more than a year(AFP) "The selection committee will add Ishan Kishan to the squad ahead of the fifth Test as Pant won't be part of the final Test match, which will be played from July 31 to August 4 at The Oval," a report in The Indian Express stated. How has Ishan Kishan fared in the last one year? Ishan has gone through a roller-coaster ride in the last year. In 2024, he was infamously stripped of the BCCI's Central Contract list after failing to comply with the board's mandatory rule of playing domestic cricket. He then turned up for Jharkhand in domestic cricket during the 2024-25 season, eventually earning back his contract earlier this year in April. He is currently part of Northamptonshire in the County Cricket Division One, and has shown good form, with scores of 87 and 77. Also Read: Ishan Kishan stuns with unexpected bowling cameo at County, mimics Harbhajan Singh's action frame-by-frame Ishan also represented the Sunrisers Hyderabad in IPL 2025, scoring 354 runs from 14 matches, featuring a bombastic century in his first appearance for the franchise. He celebrated his SRH debut by blasting his maiden IPL century off just 45 balls against the Rajasthan Royals. One of Mumbai Indians' most expensive buys previously, SRH shelled out ₹11.25 crore on him at the mega-auction last year. While Ishan has spent limited time playing Test cricket – 78 runs including a half-century – it's mostly the ODIs and T20Is, where the left-handed opener has left a mark. In December of 2022, Ishan blasted a fastest-ever double-century in ODIs, eclipsing Chris Gayle. Ishan brought up his 200 off just 126 balls, 12 quicker than the Universe Boss. He also became the youngest to achieve the landmark.

While he did not make an immediate impact in Birmingham, he was crucial in the 3rd Test match, especially with the ball, giving India top-order breakthroughs in the first innings. The list of injuries has come as an additional concern over the team's issues related to workload management.

Former India Pacer Varun Aaron Joins Sunrisers Hyderabad As Bowling Coach
Varun Aaron played nine Tests and as many ODIs for India between 2011 and 2015. His last competitive match was a Vijay Hazare Trophy game for Jharkhand earlier this year. Sunrisers Hyderabad appointed former India pacer Varun Aaron as their bowling coach for the 2026 IPL season on Monday. Aaron will succeed former New Zealand left-arm quick James Franklin. 'A fiery addition to our coaching staff! Welcome Varun Aaron as our new bowling coach," SRH announced on their X account. A fiery addition to our coaching staff! Welcome Varun Aaron as our new bowling coach 🔥🧡 #PlayWithFire — SunRisers Hyderabad (@SunRisers) July 14, 2025 Aaron played nine Tests and as many ODIs for India between 2011 and 2015. Aaron's last competitive match was a Vijay Hazare Trophy game for Jharkhand against Goa in Jaipur on January 5 earlier this year. However, Aaron ended his playing career after Jharkhand failed to enter the knockout stages of the domestic 50-over competition. The 35-year-old burst onto the scene as a young tearaway capable of crossing the 150 kmph mark, earning him immediate attention from the selectors. In fact, the top brass at the time wanted to invest heavily in him and another emerging fast bowler, Umesh Yadav. While Umesh went on to play more than 50 Tests, Aaron soon largely became an onlooker due to frequent injuries. Sunrisers Hyderabad's Torrid Run In IPL 2025 Sunrisers Hyderabad endured a dismal IPL 2025 campaign, plagued by inconsistency, poor execution, and a heavy dependence on a misfiring top order. Despite a promising start, including a mammoth 286-run innings in their opening game, their form dipped sharply as the season progressed. The duo of Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma struggled to replicate their 2024 heroics, offering little firepower when it mattered most. Ishan Kishan, Heinrich Klaasen, and Nitish Reddy also failed to provide the stability required in the middle order. The bowling department fell short as well. Injuries to key players like Adam Zampa and the off-form Mohammed Shami hurt their attack, while the spinners lacked bite on slower tracks. With tactical errors and underwhelming individual performances piling up, SRH finished sixth on the points table with 13 points in their kitty.
