The Indian cricket team faced a setback in the ongoing Test series against England, with a defeat in the first Test putting them on the back foot. Amidst the team’s performance, one player who has been under scrutiny is Shubman Gill, whose form has been a cause for concern.
Gill’s recent performances have raised questions about his place in the team, especially after he failed to make an impact in the first Test. Scoring only 23 runs in the first innings and getting out for a duck in the second, Gill’s struggles have been evident.
Former Indian pacer Zaheer Khan weighed in on the situation, offering his insights into Gill’s performance and the pressure he might be facing. Khan highlighted that despite the pressure, there should be no doubt about Gill’s place in the team, emphasizing that he will continue to play at No. 3.
“In cricket, a good player emerges from pressure. The team, the fans, and the management all see Shubman in that way. So he will be given the chance. I don’t think there should be any question about his place in the team at this time. He will play at No. 3,” said Khan.
Khan’s comments reflect the confidence the team has in Gill’s abilities, acknowledging that every player goes through phases of ups and downs. As the series progresses, all eyes will be on Gill as he looks to regain his form and contribute significantly to the team’s success.
The upcoming games will be crucial for Gill to prove himself and silence the critics. With the backing of the team management and the support of the fans, Gill will be eager to make a strong comeback and make valuable contributions to India’s campaign against England.
