Summary: Ishan Kishan, Anukul Roy and Sushant Mishra lead dominant runs to knockouts for Jharkhand.

Jharkhand continued their fine run in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy thanks to some standout individual performances that helped the team secure a place in the knockout stages.

Former India international Ishan Kishan has been in good form with the bat, dominating attacks and putting Jharkhand in command in crucial situations. His ability to pinpoint gaps and score quickly puts opposing bowlers under continual pressure. His form has been a key component of Jharkhand's success thus far in the competition.

All-rounder Anukul Roy has also been a key contributor. Roy has made significant contributions with both bat and ball, scoring quick runs in the lower middle order and taking key wickets at critical moments. His versatility provides Jharkhand with the balance that most teams seek in T20 cricket.

Sushant Mishra impressed on the bowling front with his pace and bounce. The young quick has been one of the tournament’s most economical bowlers, making early inroads and keeping the run rate in check when his team has needed it most. His knack for breaking partnerships has been especially valuable.

Together, these three players gave Jharkhand the much-needed momentum and consistency in a highly tough group stage. Their collective contributions — with the bat, ball, and all-around efforts — have not only boosted their club but also piqued the interest of fans and pundits around the domestic circuit.

Jharkhand hopes the trio keeps up their good work as the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy enters the knockout stage and advances them further into the competition, possibly all the way to the championship.
