Shubman Gill was disappointed with his shot performance in ODIs and T20s after testing on this tour.
Where Shubman Gill, who performed strongly for the Indian cricket team earlier in the year, has been dubbed a rising star. At the same time, the luster of this star has faded on the tour of the West Indies. This tour has been a nightmare for the youngster so far. This player has disappointed with his batting performance in all three formats, Test, ODI and now T20. With the ODI Asia Cup and ODI World Cup taking place this year, this talented player’s lack of form is creating new tension at Team India. Due to the constant experiments and the injury of many players, the team is already in trouble.
Shubman Gill has disappointed on the entire tour so far!
Shubman Gill’s form has been a talking point in every game against the West Indies on the current tour save for the third ODI. He hit just 45 runs in three innings of the Test game series. After that he only contributed 7 and 34 runs in the first and second ODI. In the third ODI, his racquet definitely made 85 runs, but again he was struggling with spin at the end of his inning. In the first three games of the T20 series, he was then only able to score 3, 7 and 6 runs. After that, many questions are raised about his stroke. On the other hand, in the ODI series, Ishaan Kishan cemented his claim to first place by scoring three straight half centuries. In such a situation, the question arises: who will open when Rohit Sharma returns?
Gil needs a break?
Seeing this form of Shubman Gill, some cricket experts say he suffers from physical and mental fatigue. Even before this tour, he had disappointed in the final of the Test World Championship. Although his performance in the IPL was impressive, before that he failed to achieve anything special in the ODI series against Australia. In such a situation, the question arises whether he needs a break. Shubman Gill’s role will be important at the World Cup. The tournament will be held in India and he has an excellent record on Indian soil. In this condition, the Indian team needs to keep this young star fresh ahead of the mega-event and he needs a break ahead of the Asian Cup. However, he is not part of the Ireland series and now, after August 13th, he will be featured directly against Pakistan on September 2nd in the Asian Cup.
Shubman Gil’s characters are excellent
As for Shubman Gill’s stats, he’s excellent. So far he has played 18 Tests, 27 ODIs and 9 T20 Internationals for India. In tests, he hit 966 runs with an average of 32.2, including two centuries and four half-centuries. At the same time, he had 1,437 runs at ODIs with an average of 62.47, completing four centuries and six half-centuries. In T20 International he has 218 runs with an average of 27. He also has a century to his name in this format, but surprisingly he didn’t score half a century.
