Aus vs Ind: Shubman Gill Has Backing Of Border, Gavaskar To Open In The 1st Test

By IANS News December 15, 2020 • 11:05 AM View: 2038

Former India captain Sunil Gavaskar and former Australia skipper Allan Border have backed Shubman Gill to open the Indian innings in the first Test against Australia at Adelaide as an opener ahead of Prithvi Shaw, who they feel is loose outside the off-stump and plays too many shots.

While Shaw failed to get a fifty, aggregating 62 in four innings at an average of 15.5 in the two warm-up games over the last week, Gill made 127 at 31.75 with a 65 in those games.
