Before the Asia Cup, Shubman Gill has been made the vice -captain of the T20 team, but will his bat speak in Dubai. In the last Asia Cup, this player scored the most runs for India, but this time it will not be so easy for him by doing this feat and the reason for this is Dubai’s pitch and the weakness which can be taken advantage of by the bowlers of the opposing team. Shubman Gill is weak in which case and why he can fail in Dubai, let us tell you what is the whole truth.
Shubman Gill’s big weakness
Shubman Gill is currently in amazing form. He has been raining runs on England tour after IPL, but it will not be easy for him to score runs in Dubai because the pitch there is spin friendly. Everyone knows that Gill plays well against spinners, because his technology is good but the interesting thing here is that in T20 International’s performance against Shubman Gill is very bad.
Shubman Gill called against spinners
In T20 International, Shubman Gill has scored 190 runs in 18 innings against spinners. Their average in front of spinners is only 19. Not only this, the strike rate of this player is also just 125. If Shubman Gill remains the same in the Asia Cup, it will be difficult for him. Let us know that during the Asia Cup, spinners are going to play a big role. At this time, the pitch of Dubai will be spin friendly and the big thing is that the opposing teams Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan have world class spinners. In such a situation, Shubman Gill will have to work on this weakness.
Shown in IPL
Shubman Gill, however, has done very well in IPL 2025 against spinners. Gill scored a total of 650 runs in IPL 2025, out of which he scored 270 against spinners. The player had a strike rate of more than 163 against the spinners and his average was also 135. In IPL 2025, he was dismissed only 2 times against spinners. It is clear that Gill has improved his game against the spinners, now it is yet to be removed in the Asia Cup.
