Shubman Gill Test Captaincy :
The waiting clocks are over and now it is the turn of direct action. Team India is going to start the fourth cycle of the World Test Championship under the leadership of the new Test captain Shubman Gill. The campaign will launch this campaign against England at the headingley ground in Leeds. This time the challenge for Team India is more because a legendary player like Virat Kohli has now retired. But despite Kohli’s retirement, the new captain Gill has also made up his mind to win the team by adopting his own formula and for this he is also ready to play big gambling.
This series is more difficult than the last two times in front of Team India’s new captain Shubman Gill and Gautam Gambhir, who is going to coach the team in England for the first time. This time Team India is going to play in England without veterans like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Ravichandran Ashwin, Cheteshwar Pujara and Mohammed Shami. The team has mostly new or less experienced players. In such a situation, Team India is not being considered as a contender for victory.
Kohli’s attempt to win from formula
Despite this, the pair of Gill and Gambhir is ready to make full emphasis to win. For this, Gill is ready to adopt the same formula, which was implemented by Virat Kohli in Team India after becoming captain and achieved tremendous success. This formula is to get 20 wickets and do not compromise on bowling for it. Gill reiterated the same thing in a press conference a day before the Handingley Test. He said, “You cannot win a Test match without taking 20 wickets. So if we have to get down with pure bowlers, we have no problem.”
Will have to play so big gambling
That is, the coach may be Gautam Gambhir now, but the formula of victory by Team India was adopted during the captaincy tenure of Virat Kohli, it will continue even further. It is clear from Gill’s statement that the team is ready to gamble like compromising the batting depth for one time to win the team but will never let the bowling be a Composer. During the tenure of Virat Kohli and Ravi Shastri, Team India adopted the same method and retained the policy of taking 5 bowlers in every Test, on which he became the most successful Test captain of India.
