Ishan Kishan Sets Duleep Trophy Record with 350 Runs in Final Match
Ishan Kishan scored a record-breaking 270 runs in the first innings and 80 runs in the second innings of the Duleep Trophy 2026 final, totaling 350 runs—the highest ever in a single match in the tournament's history. His performance has strengthened his case for inclusion in India's Test team, currently led by Rishabh Pant and Dhruv Jurel as wicketkeeper-batsmen. Experts suggest consistent performances in the Ranji Trophy could open opportunities for Kishan in future Test series.
