The tall pacer, who will complete a decade in international cricket in a few months, started out a three-format cricketer but has been restricted to Test cricket primarily to the longer format of the game in the past 12 months and more.

Ishant's last ODI for India was in January 2016 after which he has not played a game in coloured clothing for his country.

His last T20I for India came in October 2013 and it does not seem like in the near future, he would wear the India Blue. But if he can continue performing the way he has been in Tests, there is no reason why he can't be an excellent one-format bowler.
