Watch: Debutant Ishan Kishan instructs Virat Kohli and Yashasvi Jaiswal to stand accordingly while playing against West Indies in the first Test

On his Test debut against the West Indies on Wednesday, Ishan Kishan performed admirably. Kishan made his debut in place of wicketkeeper-batsman KS Bharat, who failed to impress team management as he struggled in the last few games. Kishan returned the faith with calmness behind the wickets and a couple of superb catches.

However, his conversation behind the stumps was the most interesting part for the fans. His video of sledging went viral on social media. Kishan was frequently amusing and insightful, giving fans a look into his personality and interactions with his teammates. In the viral video, Kishan could be heard instructing Virat Kohli and Yashasvi Jaiswal to be in a perfect position while fielding. His dedication and words behind the stumps earned a lot of appreciation from fans on social media.

Here is the video:

Notably, India is currently looking for a left-handed batter in the middle order. Since Rishabh Pant is running out of cricket due to injury, Ishan Kishan is one of the most promising options for the Indian team. Team management would like him to fill in for Rishabh Pant.

India is far ahead in the first Test

In the first Test of the two-match series, India is looking far more comfortable. With the amazing bowling performance of Ravichandran Ashwin, India bundled up the West Indies for a below-par total of 150 runs in the first innings. Ashwin clinched his 33rd five-wicket haul and also became the first Indian bowler to dismiss a father-son duo in Test Cricket.

In response, India batted well, as the new opening pair of skipper Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal added 80 runs for the first wicket till the stumps. Rohit, in his innings, scored an unbeatable 30 runs off 65 balls with the help of three boundaries and a six. Meanwhile, Jaiswal, in his innings, scored an unbeatable 40 runs off 73 balls with the help of six boundaries.
