The Indian team is playing a 5 -match Test series against England, in which captain Shubman Gill and KL Rahul have done very well. Both these players have batted strongly and won the hearts of fans. Former England batsman Owais Shah made a big statement about these two players. Owais Shah believes that in the upcoming matches, KL Rahul will leave Shubman Gill behind in the case of run. Let me tell you, Gill is the highest run -scorer in this Test series.
Owais Shah praises Rahul
Owais Shah said on the Beer Bifour Wicket Podcast, ‘I feel that he has always been in Kohli’s shadow. When Kohli is at the crease, he is the main batsman and Rahul was ignored. But now they have full opportunity to make their name. This is the first series without Virat Kohli. Yes, Shubman Gill has done very well, which I did not even expect but he will not be able to do it for long.
The former player further said, ‘But I still feel that Rahul is the best batsman of Indian batting lineup and you can trust him. His technology is also excellent. I think KL Rahul will leave Shubman Gill behind after 10 to 15 matches. We can expect this in the next 12 months.
Statistics of both players
Talking about Shubman Gill, he has scored 607 runs in three matches in the Test series against England at an average of 101.17. Gill has scored two centuries and a double century in the Test series. Talking about KL Rahul, he has also batted amazing and harassed the England bowlers. He has scored 375 runs in three matches at an average of 62.50 and Rahul has two centuries in his name. Talking about the Test series against England, there are two more matches left in it and both these players will be expected to score big.
