Shubman Gill is considered to be India's next big batsman but when it comes to performing on foreign soil, it is as if a snake smells his bat. Gill's performance outside Asia has been very poor and this has been proved once again. This player played 3 test matches in Australia and in all three matches he did not score even a half-century. After this failure of Gill, now former Indian cricketer and 1983 World Cup winning opener K. Srikanth has made a big attack. Srikanth said on his YouTube channel that Shubman Gill is not as talented as he is made out to be, and also raised questions on the selectors of Team India.
Srikanth said in his video, 'I have always said that Shubman Gill is an overrated cricketer, he is only hyped. But no one listens to me. When Gill is given so much time to prove himself, people must be wondering why Suryakumar Yadav did not get so many opportunities in Test cricket. If we talk about Ruturaj Gaikwad, he is performing so well in first class cricket. But they don't choose them. Srikanth further said, 'Sai Sudarshan performed brilliantly in the A Tour of Australia. You should promote such players.
Srikanth alleged that, 'Shubman Gill is in the team at this time because he gets 10 chances and before that he fails in 9 and scores runs in the tenth. Because of that one innings, he gets 10 more chances to score runs. Not only Srikanth, former cricketer S. Badrinath also alleged that if any Tamil Nadu cricketer had failed so much, he would have been immediately dropped from Team India.
Gill has not failed outside Asia only this year. Let us tell you that this player has failed in 14 innings played outside Asia since the year 2022. Gill has not touched the half-century mark even once during this period.
Now if Gill performs like this then anyone will raise questions. The question is that when the selectors of Team India will think about this issue, it remains to be seen.
