Gill backs Indian batters to fight back at Gabba, says visitors treating remaining matches as 'three-match Test series'

Firstpost  

Indian top-order batter Shubman Gill also admitted to being affected by wickets rapidly tumbling at the other end during the pink-ball Test against Australia in Adelaide, as a result of which he was unable to convert his promising starts. AP Shubman Gill backed the Indian batting group to fight back in Brisbane after getting bowled out cheaply twice in as many days in the pink-ball Test in Adelaide. Gill didn’t play the first Test due to a finger injury but looked good in his brief innings of 31 and 28 during the pink ball Test at Adelaide, and will be hoping to convert those starts into bigger scores in the remainder of the series. “Walking into the stadium after 2021 with the team, definitely it felt very nostalgic.” Skipper Rohit Sharma didn’t attend the optional training session and when asked about his absence, Gill replied: “This was an optional session and he has already practised a lot.” Recently, former India skipper Sunil Gavaskar had criticised out-of-form players for not turning up in optional net sessions despite having enough breaks in between matches. We are a bit more used to playing with the red ball during the day than the dynamics of a pink ball test, we don’t play as much.” Australian wickets ‘become easier for batting’: Gill Australian tracks are primarily good for batting, was his assessment.
