Ishant Sharma: If we talk about the most senior players in the Indian cricket team at present, then Ishant Sharma's name will also come in the list. The 35-year-old player made his debut in international cricket in the year 2007. Since then, he has been serving Team India.

However, this tall fast bowler has been out of the team for some time. This Delhi player played his last match in the year 2021. At the same time, now Ishant is going to return to the Indian team once again. He will replace fast bowler Mohammad Siraj. Let us know in detail in this article in which series he is going to get a chance.

Ishant Sharma is going to return!

Ishant Sharma may soon be seen making a comeback in the Indian cricket team. In fact, the selection committee led by chief selector Ajit Agarkar may give the experienced pacer one last chance to return in the upcoming Test series against Bangladesh. If sources are to be believed, head coach Gautam Gambhir wants his best players to play in the final of the World Test Championship 2025.

In red ball cricket, India currently has two dangerous fast bowlers in the form of Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami. In such a situation, Ishant fits perfectly as the third pacer. At the same time, Mohammed Siraj, who has failed to prove himself for some time, may be dropped from the Test team. Ishant Sharma can replace Siraj.

One of the most successful fast bowlers of India

Ishant Sharma, who played 105 Tests, 80 ODIs and 14 T20 matches for India, has 311 wickets in Tests. The right-arm fast bowler has taken 5 or more wickets a total of 11 times. He took 115 wickets in ODI cricket. However, his career in T20 did not last long.

Ishant has only 8 wickets in his account in the limited overs format. If we look at his first class career, the 35-year-old cricketer has taken a total of 486 wickets in 154 first class matches while representing Delhi. He has 186 wickets in his name in 130 List-A matches.
