Ishan Kishan Wins Hearts After Gifting Shoes to Sunrisers Hyderabad Teammate
Ishan Kishan was able to showcase his best performances for Sunrisers Hyderabad this season. While the team got eliminated in the last game, Kishan thought to make the ending positive for one of his teammates. He gifted a few pairs of bowling spikes to Sakib Hussain.
Sunrisers Hyderabad had one of the most inexperienced, yet lethal bowling attacks in this season. The team went without Pat Cummins for the majority of their games but still they were able to do well with the ball. The two main elements which stole the show for the team were Sakib Hussain and Praful Hinge.
Yesterday in the Eliminator game, Sunrisers Hyderabad did not have a good outing. While their bowlers conceded runs, even their top order failed to do well as they were expected. Sakib Hussain went wicketless, but he will surely remember the campaign he had with Sunrisers Hyderabad, taking 15 wickets in 11 innings.
He went costly yesterday but Ishan Kishan made sure that the end of the campaign was positive for Sakib Hussain. So, the wicket-keeper went on to gift him with six to seven pairs of bowling spikes, which has turned out to be a major gift to the youngster.
Our Take
When Sunrisers Hyderabad had an inexperienced bowling line-up, the inclusion of Sakib Hussain helped the team to a great extent. And this was also at the time when Pat Cummins was unavailable for the team due to injury issues. Since this is the start of a beautiful journey for Sakib Hussain, Ishan Kishan also decided to be a part of its success story, as he gifted him a set of bowling spikes.
