    Earlier, In advance of the ICC ODI World Cup in 2023, former Australian pacer Brett Lee has supported Ishan Kishan to take KL Rahul’s spot as the Indian cricket team’s opener. Brett Lee stated on his official YouTube channel that Ishan just achieved the fastest ODI double hundred in history and that if he continues to play well and stay healthy, he should unquestionably start for India at the World Cup. The 46-year-old urged the Indian selection committee to support Ishan in his bid to join the World Cup roster. Being the captain of India in the format, Rohit Sharma will undoubtedly compete in the prestigious competition.

    “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,” the former Australian pacer said.

    “Back Ishan to make it in the World Cup squad with an eye on the future and clearly, he would be on a high after that knock as he should be. However, a word of caution. Too much praise had led to cobwebs in the head. So my advice to Ishan Kishan would be… forget about the milestone, forget about the double hundred as soon as you can. There are bigger milestones to achieve, and higher peaks to scale. Ishan Kishan has to forget about the euphoria of his double hundred. Just focus on the process stay fit and keep smashing big runs,” he added.
