Cricket World Cup 2023, India vs Australia LIVE: Ishan Kishan to partner Rohit at the top?

Dale Steyn feels Kishan could be apt player to open not KL Rahul

"I think Ishan Kishan fits in perfectly. Ishan Kishan is another guy that he's full of duties, he's full of his exuberance, he is a guy that will do pretty much the same thing. He just hasn't done it as consistently as someone like Shun Gill. But Rohit Sharma, the man scored double hundreds in the white ball format. He has got his strength into this format."

"I don't think he can, he should change his game much. Something he's got there, do what Roy Sharma does, and Ishan Kishan taking that play and he left -handed too, so it brings in that dynamic that there's always that left -handed, right -handed combination. I know teams talk about it, but it is a thing. I was an opening bowler and I must be honest with you I hated it. I hate it having to make a decision. Should I come around the wicked? Should I bring this man up? Whoever it is, when there's two right -handed batters out there, I know all I have to do is run in, focus on swinging them all away. But now I've to think differently, our planning changes, you hate that. You want to simplify your game. Ishan Kishan has just thrown a spanner in the works for Australia."

Cricket World Cup 2023, India vs Australia LIVE: Rohit on tournament opener

The mood is pretty good as it is before the start of every big tournament. We've come into this tournament prepared really well, so quite confident about us skill wise.

 

We're looking forward to the game. Everybody's fit. Gill is not 100%, but he's sick. So, there's no injury concern. Gill is not feeling well. We are monitoring him on a daily basis. So, we're going to give him every chance to recover and see how he feels. So, he's not ruled out yet.
