After Shubman Gill another star player suffers injury in ongoing IND A vs SA A match

Another injury threat for Indian cricket. After team India skipper Shubman Gill's neck injury, another star player suffered an injury and was forced to leave the field during the India A vs. South Africa A (IND A vs. SA A) team match. 

India-A vs South Africa- A 3rd unofficial one-day is underway at the Niranjan Shah Stadium in Rajkot. During the match, while the India A team was the bowling side, Ishan Kishan suffered an injury. He was doing the wicketkeeping job then. After sustaining the injury, he had left the keeping gloves and the field as well. In place of Ishan Kishan, Prabhsimran Singh took over the keeping gloves. 

Ishan Kishan is a key player of the current India A team for the unofficial series against the South Africa A team. He participated in the last two games as well for the Men in Blue, though he had been away from his best during those two matches. During the first unofficial India-A vs. South Africa-A ODI match, the left-handed batter scored 17 runs, and in the following match, he was with the playing eleven but did not get the opportunity to bat.
