[VIDEOS] Shubman Gill - Future Indian batting star

It saddens me to accept that how a drop in one batting position ( from #3 to #4) ended up making such a huge difference in his batting performance.
If Kohli opens or bats at 3his record would have been terrible as well. As it is , that is terrible. Thsi is why Jaiswal will always be rated higher. Opening is the hardest job overseas. No.3 is also hard job.
 
He was batting at wrong position all along. No.3 and opener. At no.4 he doesn't need to face newish ball. So far his record at no.4 is much better.
I want to see runs from him in lords or oval kind of tough pressure cooker situations/pitches. We don't want a captain like babar who scores soft runs .

I think he has it in him to do that in longer formats. HE is yet to prove in ODIs though. Now that he has the captaincy let us see. He seems like a guy who elevates his performance when he captains.
 
Hasn't faced best teams yet, tours to NZ,SA are bigger challenge considering his footwork eventhough NZ should be ok considering his position.

He was failing even in India before captaincy. His real turning point was his series against England in India where he started working on his batting. Before ENgland series he made some more adjustments. NZ is not exactly a challenge. For some reasons our bozos failed there. Even Bangladesh has batted well there. SA is the real challenge.
 
Former captain Kris Srikkanth questioned how Gill earned the vice-captaincy in T20Is — a format in which he has scored just one fifty in the last two years — and went on to say that his inclusion has affected team balance and created difficulties for players such as Tilak Varma and Samson.

Gill was seen in an intense chat with head coach Gautam Gambhir during training on Wednesday. The 26-year-old will certainly be eager to convert the management’s backing and trust into substantial runs sooner rather than later.

Since returning to the T20I side, the Test and ODI captain has struggled to make an impression. In the ongoing series, Gill has managed only 57 runs in three matches.

India broke the fearsome opening combination of Abhishek Sharma and Samson to accommodate Gill at the top in T20Is. While his elevation to vice-captaincy appeared to make him an automatic selection, questions have been raised about the merit of his place in the T20I set-up, particularly given the options available for the opening role.

Pressure is mounting on Gill for his T20 spot in the team.
 
Garbage Gill/ Tuktukill is dropped finally, should be nowhere near the World Champion team.

Sanju deservedly will take get his place at the top again in the last T20I.

Hopefully he is dropped and not injured. He doesn’t fit in the team, I don’t like Sanju either, Gambhir should bring Jaiswal.
 
Sanju making most of the opportunity that he got. This was missing from iur Asia cup team.

Hopefully no entry for Gill in t20 team. If he wants to come back he needs to change his game.

Somehow, Gambhir seems to be trying to sideline Sanju and Shreyas, and I don’t understand why.
Even last year, Shreyas being released from KKR might have had Gambhir’s involvement, despite him not being officially part of KKR at that time.
 
Shubman Gill sustained an impact injury to his right foot while batting in the nets on 16th December in Lucknow. After consulting a specialist and getting treatment with the BCCI medical team, he is improving but will be unavailable for selection for the final T20I in Ahmedabad.

In India players dont get dropped. They generally get a " niggle "
 
Wow. Didn't think it would happen but India dropped Gill from T20 WC squad. Ishan Kishan is a pretty good pick in his place too.. I would have him open the batting with Abhishek.
 
It was apparent when he suddenly got dropped due to " niggle "

I jave a feeling SKY will get replaced if he fails on NZ series
I will like Jaiswal in place of ishan though. Ishan struggles on slow pitches just like Samson. If sky is not there, Jaiswal can step in at 3. Ishan needs a batting wicket like hyd or Mumbai to explode.

Jaiswal has been a bit edgy in recent times.

Give captaincy to HARDIK.

Abhishek
Sanju
Kishan / Tilak
Tilak/ kishan
Hardik (C)
Dube
Axar/ washi
Varun
Harshit Rana
BUMRAH
Kuldeep/ Arshdeep

This is perfect playing 11 .

:kp
 
It will never happen under gambhir watch.he needs batsmen till 8
Yup. I'm Also in the favour of batting till 8. But we need Kuldeep and Varun together in playing 11 along with jassi and Arshdeep.

So likely the will dropped Kuldeep and play washi .

:kp

Kuldeep will be preferred against sena and pak i think. bumrah will be the lone pacer .hardik and dube will share responsibilities.
 
Better sense has prevailed and garbage has been dropped, good to see Kishan back in the squad. Jitesh has been dropped probably because of his actions as captain in Emerging Tournament.

Congratulations

And well done for securing a semi final spot…
 
I never thought cricinfo is such a pr campaigner for gill.They are in melting mode and questioning the Gill's removal from t20 wc.They are attributing different surfaces and scenarios for gills not so good performance. As per them just like sky , gill is also not short of form but runs.Gill was taken out due to external noise. Gill and Jaiswal have similar capabilities in t20.Thats the most dishonest take ever.Gill never had the sr of jaiswal even in ipl let alone internationals.Samson does not strike well inside pp , so do Gill. Crap went on and on.Really pathetic stuff from cricinfo .
