Former Australian skipper Brett Lee believes that Ishan Kishan should feature in the forthcoming ODI World Cup squad.
“With this deadly double, Ishan has staked a strong claim to open for India in the ODI World Cup at home in 2023. Will this happen? I don’t know. Should it happen? Hell, yeah it should. The guy just scored the fastest 200 in ODI history. But if he can show consistency, stay fit, and be around the next few months, he should be a sure-shot opener for India at the World Cup,” said Lee on his YouTube channel.
