IND vs WI: Pujara will not return even after scoring a lot of runs in domestic cricket, only Shubman Gill will get a chance! Vikram Rathore gave hints
In the first Test match against the West Indies, Shubman Gill batted at number three, but scored only 6 runs. Now Indian batting coach Vikram Rathour has defended him.
When Indian young batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal entered the Indian Test team against the West Indies, he opened the innings with Rohit Sharma. Earlier in the Test, Shubman Gill was opening the innings for India in the Test with Rohit Sharma, but after Yashasvi’s arrival, he talked about batting at number three. Even before the Dominica Test match, Shubman Gill had said that he can bat at number three and this made the Indian team management’s job easier. He batted at number three against West Indies, but he was not successful. In this match, he scored 6 runs and faced 11 balls.
Gill will play for a long time in all three formats
After Gill failed at number three in the first Test against the West Indies, current India batting coach Vikram Rathour came to his defense and said that we cannot judge him on the basis of just one innings. He has got plenty of time and has the technique and temperament to play in any position. Gill has the ability to play both as a normal and attacking player and can take the game forward in any situation. We need him at number three because his temperament can be beneficial for us.
Vikram Rathour further said that Shubman Gill has got a lot of time and he will definitely do well for us at number three. He further said that considering the potential that Shubman Gill has, I have no doubt that he is the future of the Indian cricket team in batting and he will play for the Indian team in all three formats for a long time. Let us tell you that India has to play the second Test match against West Indies in Port of Spain and this Test match will start from July 20 in Port of Spain.
Kohli will score a century soon
Vikram Rathour also talked about Indian batsman Virat Kohli and praised his 76 runs. He said that the biggest quality of Virat Kohli is that he adapts himself according to the situation. Though he is an aggressive player and likes to dominate the game, he adapts to the situation brilliantly and youngsters can learn from him. Hopefully he will score a century soon.
