India's wicketkeeping race: 3 players competing for a spot
Three wicketkeeper-batters are pushing hard for a place in the Indian setup right now.
2. Kumar Kushagra
Kumar Kushagra, the wicketkeeper-batter from Jharkhand, has evolved his game to suit all three formats and is a highly regarded name in the domestic circuit. He was part of the Jharkhand side that lifted the 2025 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy title, underlining his credentials in the shortest format.
His numbers across formats reflect his adaptability: he averages over 40 in First-Class cricket, over 50 in List A cricket and strikes at over 145 in T20s. These figures have made him one of the more complete wicketkeeper-batter options available to the Indian selectors at present.
