Ishan Kishan recently showed his lighter side as he revisited viral dressing-room clips, laughing while reacting to old moments with teammates. The 27-year-old’s easygoing personality was on display as he watched snippets fans loved, and those locker-room memories still mean a lot. Fans loved the reaction universally.

One clip featuring Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill had Kishan in stitches again. Talking about a popular video with Gill, Kishan joked, “Jitni gandi harkate hai Gill start karta hai aur mai bas follow karta hu, Gill bichme baithne wala hai joh padhai mei bhi haath upar karega and badme last bench pe 2 hours keliye chill bhi krega.” (All the mischief starts with Gill; I just tag along — he’ll act studious and later relax at the back.)

The duo’s playful chemistry has produced several memorable exchanges. In a now-classic moment from the West Indies tour, Shubman Gill teased Ishan Kishan with: “Meri t-shirt hatake paseena chaatega.” Kishan’s shocked reply — “pagal wagal hai kya?” — made the clip an instant fan favourite and a regular reference in team banter.

 

Off the microphone, Kishan’s career arc has been striking. After a period away from international selection, he rebuilt his case in domestic cricket, captaining Jharkhand to the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy title and smashing a century in the final — a performance that brought him back into national contention.

Kishan carried that momentum into the New Zealand T20I series, where he finished with 215 runs from five innings, behind captain Suryakumar Yadav in the run charts. His standout contribution was an explosive 103 in the series finale at Thiruvananthapuram, a knock that underlined both his finishing ability and capacity to dominate bowling attacks.

Now part of India’s T20 World Cup 2026 squad, Kishan’s mix of power and unpredictability makes him a significant selection headache for opponents. The dressing-room laughs show he’s still the same cheeky cricketer, but his bat now backs the swagger — growth and humour often travel together in a player’s journey.
