vvvslaxman Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 He came at no.3 for U19 . May be not ready to be an opener? He has scored a century probably the best team of all the 4 he has faced so far. We will see in IPL. Link to comment
kooljatt Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Settling in a new team , getting to know team players can take some time. He has not played consistently enough with these players. All these failures can only help him in long run. The reason everyone is rooting for him is that he has such a great attitude, humble guy and of course has very good technique to go along with all this. You will see him playing for India and succeeding. Link to comment

Needs time in domestics and A tours . Could need maybe one year or 5 years , time will tell Link to comment
jalebi_bhai Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Like Virat when he was 18/19, Gill has the raw talent. After the 2019 WC, he needs to become Virat's understudy at #4 (eventually to take over the #3 slot after Virat is done) so that he gains experience for the 2023 WC. Has the potential to be India's next batting superstar. Inconsistency and failure is part of the learning curve so he needs to go through this phase. Suhaan 1 Link to comment

Very true but Chand was acting like a big shot after the 2012 u-19 WC. Guy released a book and was trying to pass himself off as some sort of great thinker of the game at the precious age of 19 despite doing nowt at senior level. Link to comment

For one thing his basic technique looks good. He has good work ethic like Kohli. Also Yuvraj is giving all the encouragement for him to blossom. It is upto him to go from here. Link to comment

Gill has an average of around 100 in U19 ODIs. we need to do same with Gill, at least against weaker teams when we do not have any FC games. next ranji season will be in October, so, instead of letting him sit around, we should pick and let him play in the nets against our quality fast bowler and spinners. He will certainly benefit when he faces them and might play some games too against weaker sides and when FC season starts, he should be back playing FC games. Link to comment

Who knows his selection quickly after U19 WC had hastened his progress because some players can stagnate or even regress if they keep playing lower grade cricket. Link to comment

I cant explain But some look ready for bigger stage before smaller stage. Letting everyone slog through the same process would jeopardize our chances of unearthing our future batting superstar. It is not like we have pelthora of batting stars hogging our batting line up. Probably this is the weakest middle order we have ever had in one day internationals. It is almost like we won't lose anything by giving him a chance or two against weaker teams. Edited February 15, 2018 by vvvslaxman Link to comment
Austin 3:!6 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Shubman Gill should play the Nidahas Trophy. Also should be in the team as back up for Eng ODI series. Link to comment

And also it's not like we give a free pass to team India for every u19 star.its only the exceptionally bright ones for whom the exceptions can be made and rightly so. Link to comment

Timing the ball well. Even the ball he got out to was timed well. These are no big boys. He is definitely the next Kohli. His shot execution is shockingly similar to Kohli. He just needs the hunger of Kohli. He will go places. Link to comment
