In his mind, he has absolute clarity about his role.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCricket is all about competing and making comebacks. And you keep your preparation complete. Try to be ready for any situation, for any series or upcoming games. When you are backed, your role is to be ready and do well. Which I always try to do,\u201d Bishnoi, who is managed by SSpark Sports led by Rajeev Khanna, said.<\/p>\n<p>Bishnoi last played for India in January this year before missing the bus for the World Cup at home. To be not considered for three World Cups in a row was disappointing but Bishnoi said he did not have an option other than to keep working on his craft with coach Shahrukh back home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is everyone\u2019s dream to play in the World Cup. To win it. It is my dream too. Even though I have missed the World Cups, I have more opportunities. So I will try not to miss this time. I should make it count.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd when you miss, it is not like suddenly someone is playing in my place. But India won the World Cup. Whoever plays in my place, they did really well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou know how good the competition is going on right now in the Indian team. It is competitive. I have only one goal in life. When I get a chance, I should be prepared and deliver myself. Then I shouldn\u2019t have those regrets that I didn\u2019t get that chance,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Having said that Bishnoi is only human and he does feel dejected when life is not going his way.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a little difficult because you want to play in the World Cup. The World Cup was at home this time. But it is sports, ups and downs and part of it. That is why we choose sports. It teaches you how to come back and how to lift yourself in this tough phase.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy parents are there. My coaches always stay with me. Shah Rukh bhai and others. They have been like pillars to me. They always say, this time or next time. To feel bad is human. Everyone feels bad. But it shouldn\u2019t take long to move on.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is my mindset. Because if you feel bad for a long time, it affects your performance. And you can\u2019t focus on your game.\u201d  Bishnoi is someone who is not known for his sharp turning leg breaks. His strength lies in bowling sliders and googlies. Of late he has not tried anything fancy, he has just focused on maintaining accuracy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI keep my bowling so simple that if I throw a ball in a 5-6m length area, it is very difficult to hit it from there. So after coming home, I try to hit that area as many times as I can.<\/p>\n<p><b>ALSO READ: <a href=\"https:\/\/sportstar.thehindu.com\/cricket\/rajesh-pawar-mumbai-cricket-chair-senior-selection-committee\/article71121565.ece\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Rajesh Pawar says appointment as chair of Mumbai\u2019s senior selection committee a huge responsibility<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo these days, I was working on my basics. I want to keep my bowling so simple and not so complicated. My bowling\u2019s specialty is that if I keep simplicity in it, I get success,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Bishnoi understands the need to evolve with batters redefining the T20 game. With the current management keen on playing all-rounders, he has also worked on his batting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCricket has progressed so much that you have to contribute in all departments. This is what I am trying to do. I practice a lot with my batting. Because you have to become a match winner in all departments,\u201d said Bishnoi, who also has aspirations to play Test cricket for India as that is the \u201cmain format\u201d.<\/p>\n<p class=\"publish-time\" id=\"end-of-article\">Published on Jun 20, 2026<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/sportstar.thehindu.com\/cricket\/t20-world-cup-ravi-bishnoi-leg-spinner-indian-team-comeback\/article71125713.ece\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>India leg-spinner Ravi Bishnoi doesn\u2019t want to be known as a man of comebacks in his stop start international career that saw him missing the last three T20 World Cups&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":183343,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-183342","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sports"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/newslink360.space\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/028.jpg","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":177391,"url":"https:\/\/newslink360.space\/?p=177391","url_meta":{"origin":183342,"position":0},"title":"India T20I squad for Ireland and England series: Shreyas Iyer named captain, Suryakumar dropped; Sooryavanshi gets maiden call-up","author":"Ajay Kumar Verma","date":"June 6, 2026","format":false,"excerpt":"The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Saturday announced the squads for India\u2019s T20I series in Ireland and England, to be held in June and July, respectively.
