(Reuters) - After Suryakumar Yadav and Ishan Kishan earned their maiden call-ups to the Indian national team, vice-captain Rohit Sharma stressed on the importance of playing without any pressure when they take on England in a Twenty20 series. "I don't want them to be thinking about anything," Rohit told reporters on Wednesday. For England, it's a much-awaited return to the squad for all-rounder Liam Livingstone who had similar success in Australia's Big Bash League where he scored 426 runs for Perth Scorchers. "The Big Bash is such an exciting competition. Playing in the IPL in front of 60,000 people and playing in a Big Bash final -- these are the pressure moments you start to get used to."
