Former India cricketer Abhishek Nayar applauded Shubman Gill for his versatile approach to batting against Australia in the ongoing second ODI match, here in Indore on Sunday. Before the rain stopped the play in the 10th over, Shubhman rapidly went on to 32 runs, courtesy of his counter-attack approaching, coming down the track against Australian pacers.
Speaking on JioCinema, Abhishek seemed highly impressed with Gill’s approach and ability to find boundaries, “Against the pacers, he did not get the pace that he wanted so he started to use his feet, which is why Shubman Gill is touted to be the next big thing, is because he can have these versatile games with him. He can up the ante when he wants to, he can take his time. He is just terrific and he just shows a lot of maturity.”
Shubhman batting along with Shreyas Iyer went on to build a partnership of 200 runs before Iyer got out scoring his second ODI century and first after injury.
