India vs England 2016: 5 wicket-keepers who could have been selected for the third Test instead of Parthiv Patel

Parthiv Patel was called in as an immediate replacement for the injured Wriddhiman Saha on Wednesday

#2 Ishan Kishan

Ishan Kishan was the captain of the Indian team in U-19 World Cup 2016

Ishan Kishan is another exciting teenager who has been grabbing everyone's attention ever since he burst out into the domestic circuit. The 18-year old Jharkhand batsman has been playing very well in the Ranji Trophy this season and is the tenth highest run-getter.

He has managed to score 599 runs at an impressive average of 74.87 with three hundred and has a high score of 273. The left-hander has often been regarded as the one of the youngsters to watch out for in the coming years. He has an impressive average of 51.34 in the 16 First-class matches that he has played so far.

Given his age, Ishan's addition to the national team would have been a bit early but it would have been worth a gamble.
