This means that Ishan Kishan will have to warm the bench in this IND vs AUS match. In the first ODI game against the Aussie side, Kishan failed to contribute much with the bat as he was dismissed LBW at the hands of right-arm seamer Marcus Stoinis after scoring just 3 runs off 8 deliveries. The southpaw has not been able to score much of runs after that maiden double hundred in the last ODI in Bangladesh. On the other hand, Rohit looked in a fine form during the Test series and also scored a hundred in his last ODI innings against New Zealand.
