Kishan, 25, has an ODI best of 210 in 25 matches, but a recent 82 against Pakistan in the Asia Cup won him rich praise from the cricketing fraternity including former Pakistan speedster Shoaib Akhtar who called him a "big match player"

Former Bangladesh captain Mashrafe Bin Mortaza weighed in on the controversy regarding Tamim Iqbal’s eleventh-hour exclusion from the World Cup squad, saying the captain or the coach should have directly spoken to the batter about the team's plan to bat him in the middle order against Afghanistan.

The deal comes after four months of deadlock between the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) and players, and for the first time will see them get a share of the country's payout from the International Cricket Council (ICC).

Mashrafe, however, gave a different opinion on his Facebook post, opining that Tamim was not dropped, instead the batter opted not to be in the side.  

They bludgeoned 314-3 in their 20 overs with Kushal Malla crashing 137 not out off 50 balls, including 12 sixes and eight fours, and Dipendra Singh Airee hitting eight sixes in 10 balls in his unbeaten 52.
