Indian star batsman Shikhar Dhawan is running out of Team India these days. At one point, Dhawan was an important part of Team India’s ODI squad. Now Shubman Gill and Ishaan Kishan have priority instead. Shubman Gill currently plays all three formats for Team India. In such a situation, when Dhawan was asked if he were the team selector, would he have given Shubman Gill a place in the team or would he have stayed? Dhawan took the name Shubman Gill on this question.
Speaking to a news channel, Dhawan said: “Shubman was playing two formats and doing very well. Both in Test Match and in T20. He played more cricket internationally and I didn’t play as much. So if I were the selector, I would have given Shubman a chance. He does not give Shikhar. Choose Shubman over Shikhar.
Shubman Gill looks in great shape these days. Gill had scored a brilliant century in the recently played Test series against Australia. He had played an innings of 128 runs. Gill has scored a century in all three formats in 2023. So far this year, Gill has scored 3 centuries in ODIs, 1-1 in Tests and T20 Internationals with the bat.
Gill has played a total of 15 Tests, 24 ODIs and 6 T20 Internationals in his international career so far. In Tests, he has scored 890 runs with the help of 2 centuries and 4 half centuries, 1311 runs in ODI with the help of 4 centuries and 5 half centuries, and in T20 Internationals, he has so far scored 202 runs at a strike rate of 165.57, including a century.
