India Dough Cheteshwar Pujara believes that the upcoming series of testing tests against England will also be a challenge for the newly mentioned test captain Shaubman Gill. When India enters the new era of the test cricket under gill leadership, the Pujara considers the series to be a key proven soil for 25 -year -old on demanding English surfaces.
The excitement between Indian cricket fans has increased since the announcement of an 18 -member group for a series of tests of five matches from June 20 in Headingley, with SHUBMAN GILL takes over as a captain After retirement Rohit Sharma. However, the recent form of the India testing party has caused concern. The World Championship in the 2023-2025 World Championship ended with a disappointment with the home team against New Zealand, followed by the defeat of Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia-raising with a ten-year dominant period.
The pressure on Gill will be huge when it leads a young, relatively inexperienced test side. In an interview with Star Sports, Pujara explained that the series provides Gill with a unique opportunity to gain timely confidence as a leader and support his skills to work well in English conditions.
“If you go abroad as a captain, whether you are young or mature, it will be difficult. It will not be easy for SHUBMAN, but it is a great opportunity for young players. If he is doing well in England, he will strengthen his certainty,” Pujara said in online interaction organized by Sony Sports Network.
“The reason he received responsibility before Jasprit Bumrah is that we hear that Bumrah will not be able to play all five test matches,” he added.
Pujara also emphasized the importance of Gilla, which focuses on his duties as a dough next to his captain’s duties.
“There is also a lot of responsibility to him as a dough, but I’m sure that the kind of talent he has will be successful in England. He will certainly motivate him to behave well.
“When you play as a dough at the highest level, you never think about whether you are a captain or a player, you always want to do well for the team. You have to keep it separate when you burn in the middle, you have to think as a dough than to think about the captain,” he added.
The Indian test team is undergoing a generation shiftmoving toward youth after Retirement of veterans Virt Kohli and Rohit Sharma. Gill now leads a party supported by experienced characters such as Kl Rahul, Vice President Rishabh Pant and Breptihead Bowler Jasprit Bumhrah. Although the conditions in England will test, expectations remain high for a strong Indian return.
