On the other hand, Nitish Rana recently played for Delhi in the ongoing Ranji Trophy season. But, he had a season to forget as Nitish Rana scored only 71 runs in five innings, at an average of 17.75. However, in the white-ball formats of the domestic season, Rana had done comparatively well for his team.
Nitish Rana last played for team India in 2021
In the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2022/23 season, he scored 122 runs in five innings, at an average of 30.50. Then, in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2022/23 season, he scored 317 runs in eight innings, at an average of 45.28. On the other hand, Nitish Rana last played for India in July 2021 in Sri Lanka in a T20I game. After that, he failed to make a comeback in Men in Blue. Speaking about his career, Nitish Rana has played two T20Is where he has scored just 15 runs, at an average of 7.5. Apart from that, Rana has played just one ODI match.
In that clash, he scored just seven runs. Recently, he also shared some cryptic tweets after getting missed out on the final squads for South Africa series and the Sri Lanka series last year. Now, on 30 January 2023, fans went crazy when they saw that Nitish Rana liked a tweet where Ishan Kishan’s poor run of form was mentioned. In that tweet, it is mentioned that Ishan Kishan has scored 199 runs at an average of 15.30 and a strike rate of 106.41. Rana liked that tweet and one fan shared the same on Twitter.
Here is the tweet:
