AHMEDABAD: Shubman Gill's regal 63-ball 126 in the final game of the T20I series at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Wednesday night was a perfect illustration of destroying an attack while employing proper cricket shots. It is something India's women's Under-19 World Cup-winning team, which was invited by BCCI secretary Jay Shah to watch the match, should definitely learn from.
Before this match, some people would point out Gill's modest strike rate of 128.81 to question his place in India's T20I side. However, the way the Punjab man made a mincemeat of the bowlers on Wednesday night -scoring at a fabulous rate of 200.00- leaves little argument about his place in T20Is too. Gill is now the Indian team's latest all-format jewel.
