Kishan Bowls Off & Leg Spin in Same Over
In a moment that perfectly captured his fun-loving spirit, Ishan Kishan stunned fans and commentators alike by bowling both off-spin and leg-spin in the same over during a County Championship match for Nottinghamshire. Known more for his explosive batting and agile wicketkeeping, Kishan took off the gloves and rolled his arm over in a light-hearted final over of a drawn match against Somerset.
Starting with off-spin deliveries that looked relatively controlled, Kishan then switched to leg-spin—less accurate, but far more entertaining. His over had the crowd chuckling and the commentators struggling to keep a straight face.
From Gloves to Gags: Kishan’s County Stint Gains Buzz
Kishan, who hasn’t featured for India since November 2023, is currently playing for Nottinghamshire as a replacement for South Africa’s Kyle Verreynne. While his bowling cameo stole the show, he’s also impressed with the bat, scoring back-to-back fifties in his first two matches.
“I’m feeling very excited to get my first taste of playing county cricket in England,” Kishan said. “It’s a great chance to showcase my skills and learn in these conditions.”
His enthusiasm was evident—not just in his batting, but in his willingness to try something new and entertain the crowd.
What’s Next for Kishan?
Kishan is expected to feature in Nottinghamshire’s upcoming fixtures against Yorkshire at Trent Bridge and Somerset in Taunton. While he may not be in India’s current Test plans, his performances in England—both serious and silly—are keeping him in the spotlight.
