5 Indian players who are likely to make their International debut in 2019

#2 Ishan Kishan

Ishan Kishan is knocking the International doors with his consistent domestic display

The 20-year-old wicketkeeper captained the Indian U-19 team in 2016 when India lost to West Indies in the finals. Kishan's struggles in the moving conditions hampered his progression to the Indian Cricket team.

However, the Jharkhand-born cricketer has started playing consistently well in the domestic cricket for the past two seasons. He is also part of the Indian A team which has travelled to New Zealand recently.

The top-order batsman has scored 2398 runs in first class games with an impressive average of 40.6 Not many domestic wicket-keepers have 40+ average in first class games. He is equally good in the List A tournaments as scored 1560 runs from 42 games with a similar average of 40.0.

His ability to score runs quickly will make him a suitable alternative to his U-19 compatriot Rishabh Pant in the longer run.
