Ishan Kishan & Arshdeep Singh Engage In Australian Open Banter

Following the fifth T20I match between India and New Zealand, Ishan Kishan and Arshdeep Singh were seen engaging in some fun banter over the Australian Open final.

Ishan Kishan clearly voiced his support for Carlos Alcaraz and compared his playmaking with that of the Indian cricket team, as both try to hit it in the gaps.

"I personally want Alcaraz to win because I feel that the way he plays is very much like how we play. It’s a bit quick. Whenever there’s a gap, we try to hit it. We don’t show that much patience. So that is with Alcaraz," Ishan Kishan said in a video shared on 'X' (Formerly Twitter).

While Kishan backs Carlitos, Arshdeep Singh is rooting for Novak Djokovic to make history at the Australian Open final. "I’m supporting Iceman (Novak Djokovic)," the Indian pacer said in the video.

Arshdeep and Ishan Kishan engaged in some tennis chatter as Kishan questioned how many more Grand Slam titles he wants Novak to win. The wicketkeeper-batter stayed rooting for Alcaraz to win.

Novak Djokovic & Carlos Alcaraz Aim To Make History At AO Men's Final 

The 'King of Australia', Novak Djokovic, is on the hunt for a record-setting Grand Slam title victory in his favourite hunting ground, Melbourne.

The Serb is chasing his 11th title in the Australian Open and is also chasing the opportunity to become the first player in the world to win 25 Grand Slam singles titles

Carlos Alcaraz, on the other hand, also has a golden chance of doing something momentous. The Spaniard could complete a career Grand Slam by winning the Australian Open title.

Alcaraz has already won the French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open. The AO title is the only one missing out. Carlitos would not miss out on making history as well.
