Pics: Pakistan's Abbas shares photos with India's Ishan Kishan

Pakistan seamer Mohammad Abbas on Wednesday shared a couple of photos with India’s wicketkeeper-batter Ishan Kishan. Both players currently represent Nottinghamshire in the County Championship Division One.The match ended in a draw, but the duo won hearts with their celebration. The heartwarming moment came after Abbas dismissed Yorkshire opener Adam Lyth for a duck on Day 2, with Kishan taking the catch.

Ishan Kishan scored a breezy 87 on his debut. He has signed a short-term deal with Nottinghamshire to play two County Championship fixtures this season. Kishan replaces Kyle Verreynne, who is away on national duty as South Africa travel to Zimbabwe for a two-Test series later this month."I'm feeling very excited to get my first taste of playing county cricket in England, and it will be a great chance to showcase my skills," Kishan said."I want to make sure I am the best cricketer I can be, and playing in English conditions will really help me to learn new skills."Meanwhile, Mohammad Abbas had earlier swapped Hampshire for Nottinghamshire.

The 35-year-old was originally set to return to the squad in September for the final three matches of the campaign.

However, an amendment to his agreement — pending international clearance — will now see him feature in four additional fixtures across June and July.“I’m very happy to be staying with Nottinghamshire for more games,” said Abbas. “I’ve really enjoyed my time here so far.“We have started the season really well, so I will be doing everything I can to make sure that carries on for the rest of the summer.”

Former England pacer Stuart Broad on Friday backed Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club’s decision to retain Pakistan seamer Mohammad Abbas for all seven of the club’s remaining County Championship fixtures in the 2025 season."Could be a Championship-winning decision this," Broad wrote on X.
