At the crease, Shubman Gill has many qualities that give him a strong chance of succeeding. He sets up classically for a right-hand bat and waits for the ball to come to him. He has every shot in the book, but his game is built on a tight defence.
The batting bit, at least some of the time, must feel like the easy part to Gill. It is every aspiring cricketer’s dream to captain their country. But, as they rise through the ranks, many will realise that the honour is not always worth the trouble. The constant pressure to deliver results may even be bearable, but dealing with what happens off the field is something very few people aspire to.
