Shubman Gill must be picked for the ODI series in England which will be take placr right before the 5 match test series.

This guy is special and can be fast tracked.

You never know, he might be playing 2019 world cup in the same country where he makes his debut if picked.

Everyone has seen enough of him now in this tournament and its time to take this big call.

Fasttrack Gill

Great knock although I’ve noticed six hitting doesn’t come naturally to him. He tends to lose his shape, hope IPL doesn’t mess up his game. I’d prefer to see him fast tracked to test side as has a good temparement for that format. 

Yeah, so here is the thing.

 

He did not try to hit anything till the last two overs.

 

I think his full focus was to stay on the wicket. That was very kohliesque style game. 

 

Hitting sixes will naturally come as him as his timing improves year from now, just like how it did for Kohli.

 

What impressed me was that India was in deep shyt today and he did not give a single chance to Pakistan in that period.

 

What a knock.

Ok so you agree that currently not great at hitting sixes; means he has to be ultra special to play in LOIs in the modern era of high batting totals. WC2019 may be too soon for him.

He will evolve....but yes at an u19 level you never know which way a player will go,but so far checks all the right boxes.

 

Unmukt Chand looked like a deer in headlights against Lee,Kallis,Steyn etc where as Kohli,Pant, Samson etc looked like they belong from day 1.

Yeah but too small a package honestly, but his strength is more staying at the wicket and timing the ball for four as that is what he has tried to do in every game he has played in this tournament.

 

Regarding world cup, at this age you learn things fast and batting alongside Kohli, he might improve faster than what we think.

 

You won’t learn much with t20 playing for Kkr or Delhi daredevils or any other IPl side as much you will learn while batting with Kohli in a live international ODI game.

 

Fast track this future world cup MVP.

 

He is the 50 over deal.

That’s getting a little too far...2-3 deliveries of watching unmukt Chand was enough to tell he was not good enough and this was the guy who became a star as well.

 

what looks good about Gill is he plays the ball late and time he has to play his shots ..an attribute One looks for in most batsmen

Unmukt never had such ability to rotate like crazy, Shubman has.

 

Only Kohli has such ability in world cricket to rotate on every single ball. What makes Kohli special in t20s is that he takes more singles and that is also what he does in OdI’s.

 

Shubman has such quality, the quality to take single and get of the strike and keep milking those single doubles - perfect ploy for 50 over game.

 

We need him at number four to follow Kohli.

Not really...Unmukt was called the next Kohli because his % cricket was similar at the u19 level similar to Kohli in internationals.

 

2 things set Gill apart, the quality of u19 bowling has increased and also Gill looks a lot more assured and less fidgety at the crease.

 

Chands 1 st test was to play against some great bowlers of the game and this wasn’t in some enviable situation like slog overs...he opened and looked absolutely no idea against seam bowling and length at 140k.

 

The way gill looks to have time on his hands is what sets him apart. IPL will give us some idea though....Pant,Samson,Kishen and even Kohli when he started looked a league above

TBH Kohli didnt look as impressive as Gill in the U19 WC

IPl will not give us any idea. It will only slowly improve Gill’s or Shaw’s hitting ability but IPl won’t give us or selectors any idea as these youngsters are bound to have average seaon with limited chances which they will get after couple of cameo scores.

 

t20 doesn’t gice you much time to score runs and for under19 players itd extra hard, hence Kohli, Pant, Unmukt, and pretty much 90 percent of young batsmen struggled in the IPl in first few seasons.

 

 

Our idea has been given to us.

 

He needs to be fast tracked.
