Aakash Chopra On Shubman Gill: Shubman Gill was dismissed cheaply in the first innings of Dominica Test against West Indies. Shubman Gill went on to score 6 runs off 11 balls. Alyque Ethanje caught the catch of Shubman Gill on the ball of Jomel Varican. However, now former Indian opener Akash Chopra has given his reaction on Shubman Gill’s dismissal. Actually, Akash Chopra believes that there is a flaw in Shubman Gill’s batting technique, he remains in the crease. Especially, there is a big challenge in front of Shubman Gill in the Test format. Along with this, Akash Chopra told how Shubman Gill can overcome his shortcomings.
Where is the flaw in Shubman Gill’s technique?
Akash Chopra said that Shubman Gill plays defensive shots with hard hands. For this reason, he has been consistently getting out in this style in the Test format. He said that it is not easy for India to play at number-3 in Test matches, Shubman Gill knows this very well. Apart from this, till now he has been playing as an opener, due to this it will take time to adjust to number-3. Also, Akash Chopra said that Shubman Gill had to wait a long time to bat, because there was a big partnership between Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal. But despite this, I believe that Shubman Gill’s technique could have been better.
‘Shubman Gill is a great batsman, but…’
Akash Chopra said that you will remember the Indore Test against Australia. In that match, Shubman Gill returned to the pavilion in exactly the same way. Shubman Gill tried to play a defensive shot with strong hands, but lost the wicket. Akash Chopra says that Shubman Gill will have to work on his shot, especially in the Test format… But apart from that, there is no doubt that he is a great batsman.
