About Sai Kishore
Sai Kishore is an Indian domestic cricketer who plays for Tamil Nadu. He first caught attention for the wrong reasons when he had an ugly spat with India's premier spin bowler R. Ashwin during the Tamil Nadu T20 League 2016. But the incident pushed him to perform better and he was the fourth-highest wicket-taker in that season and subsequently emerged as the highest wicket-taker in the next season of the League with 17 scalps to his name.
Sai was also the leading wicket-taker for Tamil Nadu in the 2018–19 Ranji Trophy, with 22 wickets in six matches. In Syed Mushtaq Ali tournament 2019, he took 20 wickets in 12 games at a fantastic economy rate of 4.63 and 15 of his 20 wickets came in the Powerplay, showing his ability to produce vital breakthroughs. Seeing his talent and temperament to bowl in the first 6 overs, the Chennai-based franchise bought him in the auction ahead of the 13th edition of the Indian T20 League and retained him for the following season as well.
