India vs West Indies: Kishan heard sledging Windies batter on stump-mic, instructs Kohli on field position; Watch

India Test debutant Ishan Kishan was in fine form on Wednesday against the West Indies, taking a couple of catches during the West Indian innings.

There’s still a long way to go for the 24-year-old, but Kishan’s early impressions on the field as far his performance is concerned, was very good.

Kishan is known for motivating the bowlers when it comes to his role behind the stumps, apart from distracting the opposition batters.

But, in a video shared on Twitter early on Thursday, Kishan could be heard asking Virat Kohli to come a bit straighter, while also asking Yashasvi Jaiswal to slightly change his fielding position. Kohli was standing at slip position while Jaiswal was fielding at silly point.

“Virat bhai, thoda sa seedha,” Kishan could be heard saying in the video.

Kishan could also be heard sledging a West Indian batter.
