‘What Dhoni said to me when my debut failed’: Shubman Gill opens his mind
Shubman Gill is the best performing player in the Indian cricket team. Gill has played a crucial role in winning the title for India in the U-19 World Cup. He is currently considered for India’s Test and ODI squads.
Gill, who is waiting to debut for India in the T20I, is expected to get a chance in the ongoing tour of New Zealand. The player will enter the Indian team through the ODI series against New Zealand in 2019.
But the star was not able to perform well in the debut match. At that time when the team was losing, the Indian captain M.S. Shubman Gill is now remembering what Dhoni said. Gill said that Dhoni said that his debut match was not good.
Gill added that he told him that in Dhoni’s debut match, India were bowled out for 15 runs and that was a huge disappointment for Dhoni, who was bowled out for just nine runs. Gill said that Dhoni was 19 years old then.
Mahibhai came to me and said that yours is better than my debut. He was run out in his debut match without facing a single ball. Dhoni laughed at me when he told me this,’ said Gill.
At a time when he was frustrated, India’s legendary M.S. Gill added that the fact that Dhoni shared his shortcomings without any hesitation has given him great hope and has been a great inspiration in his career.
At the same time, Gill is one of the stars that India promises a big future. The Indian team management is going to give the star a better chance in T20 as well. Currently, Gill shines in the role of opener, but it is estimated that Gill is a player who can shine at number three after Virat Kohli. Shubman Gill is a player who can make big gains if given more opportunities.
