Indian team captain Shubman Gill played his best innings in Birmingham. He scored 269 runs in 387 balls with the help of 30 fours and 3 sixes. Along with this, he made many records in his name. Despite this performance of Gill, former Indian cricket Yograj Singh is not happy. He was expecting more than Gill. He said that Gill has done crime. Apart from this, Yograj Singh has given credit for this innings of the Indian captain to his son Yuvraj Singh. Yograj Singh has also praised the team’s head coach Gautam Gambhir.
What did Yograj Singh say?
Yograj Singh, father of former Indian cricketer and Yuvraj Singh, is not satisfied with the double century of Shubman Gill. During an interview, he said that if the great West Indies batsman Brian Lara can score 400 or 500 runs in the Test match, then why can’t we do this?
Yograj Singh told Yuvraj Singh’s hand behind this success of Shubman Gill. He said with this that people should learn from Yuvraj Singh and Gautam Gambhir how coaching is done. He told that Yuvraj Singh has given coaching to Gill himself. Shubman Gill is a great player. He said that Gill should have taken his innings longer. They must have made triple century.
