Everyone was surprised to see the anger of Indian captain Shubman Gill, who is always quiet, on the third day of Lord’s Test match. In the last session of the third day, the Indian captain had a dispute with England opener Jack Croly to waste time. Seeing his attitude, England remembered Virat Kohli. Virat Kohli had a fierce class of England wicketkeeper batsman Joss Butler on this ground 1429 days ago. Shubman Gill has put some such class of Jack Croly. Photos of both incidents are becoming increasingly viral on social media and fans have started comparing them to King Kohli after seeing Shubman Gill’s anger.
Gill imposed Croi’s class
In the last session on the third day of the Lord’s Test match, Team India’s first innings was reduced to 387 runs. During this time, England had to bat for only 7 minutes in the second innings. Team India wanted to do two overs during this period, but England openers Jack Croly and Ben Docket wanted to play only one over.
Because of this, Jack Croly started wasting time at the crease, on which he got into dispute with captain Shubman Gill. Gill showed Crowley’s class showing finger. A similar view was seen in the year 2021 in the controversy of Virat Kohli and Joe Root.
Kohli was angry in Lord’s
In the year 2021, the Indian team went on a tour of England under the captaincy of Virat Kohli. During the second Test match played at Lord’s, Virat Kohli had a dispute with Joss Butler. He had a fierce class of Butler batting. In this match, Kohli also had a dispute with former England fast bowler James Anderson.
This Test match was won by the Indian team by 151 runs. Now the Indian team is trying to repeat this history again and wants to take an edge in the series. During this, former England captain Jonathan Trot has targeted Gill.

What did Jonathan Trot say?
Former England captain Jonathan Trot has attacked Gill fiercely over the controversy between Shubman Gill and Jack Croly. Talking on geiograph star sports, he said that Shubman Gill did not like to show the finger to the England batsman and stand in front of Jack Croly.
Trot said that I do not know what happened when the England batsmen were on the field? However, I did not like Gill’s acting, because as captain you set the atmosphere. He said that he is showing finger and standing in front of him, just like the captain who used to stand in front of the face of the opponents. On the other hand, former England captain Stuart Broad has expressed displeasure over the England batsmen.
Stuart Broad expressed resentment
Criticizing former England fast bowler English batsmen, I wrote on X, “I have been complaining about a slow game, so I feel strange that my most favorite over of this series, which was the last over of the day, lasted for 7 minutes”.
Ive been moaning about slow play so feels strange to me that my favorite over of the series, the final one of the day, lasted 7 minutes ork
