Ishan Kishan after scoring a fifty against Australia

Ishan Kishan, fondly known as the pocket-dynamite is known for his big-hitting skills, displayed his wide range with a sparkling fifty against Australia in the first T20I at Vizag. However, just he was looking to explode, he holed out at deep extra cover in the 13th over.

The southpaw walked out to bat with India in trouble at 22-2 with both openers departing early. Ishan Kishan took his time in the middle initially, but when he got going, it was hard to stop him. He slammed five huge sixes and two fours in his knock of 58 off just 39 balls.

Ishan Kishan got to his fifty with an extraordinary boundary which brought back memories of MS Dhoni's famous helicopter shot. It was a very full delivery on middle from Tanveer Sangha on middle. 

Kishan stayed deep in his flick and whipped it wide of long on for a boundary to reach his fifty in 29 balls. He followed it up with a massive six, but in a bid to hit another one over the park, he lofted it straight to deep extra cover where Matthew Short took a fine catch. However, before that boundary, he had hit a huge six to Nathan Ellis, that went to the second tier of the Vizag Stadium.

Despite the wicket of Ishan Kishan, India were in a strong position when he got out on a pitch that is a belter with Suryakumar Yadav and Rinku Singh going great guns.
