New Delhi: SHUBMAN GILL is ready to take over from the now completed Captain Rohit Sharmaas India, starting with five match test series against England from 20 June. In five T20i matches he led the national team and won four. In the Premier League Indian, Gujarat Titans captain was in 25 matches now and won 14, lost 11. He folded, based on purely on numbers, Gill does not necessarily build immediate confidence.But his teammates speak very about 25 years. “He was as great as a player and as a captain. The way he is his job is very calm. He understands the game very well.Go beyond the border with our YouTube channel.

And he is a very good player. He will be very important to us. Hopefully we can connect as a team and win the tournament,” added West Indies, GT chased the 2025.Who is the IPL player?“I think he reads the game very well. He’s very modest. As a player who is as young, the way he can handle the IPL franchise certainly has a good head on his shoulders. And he’s a person who communicates well. He wants the best for his players.Sentiments are similar to what GILL assistant coach Gujarat Titans Aashish Kapoor did. After the victory of GT against Delhi Capitals, where a player born in Fazilk fantastically introduced his shifts, Kapoor spoke not only about his form but of his leadership.“I saw him from the U-16. Actually, in the NCA I made two camps with him. So from the U-16 age group I saw that he used his brains much more than many other people at his age. This is one quality that needs to be a captain.

GT’S MIDDLE ORDEIf things are, Gujarat Titans are the highlight of the IPL point table and despite the lunge against Lucknow Super Giants, losing 33 runs, they have a strong chance to complete the league scene at the top of two. The fact that Royal Challengers Bengalur also lost with the already eliminated team (Sunrisers Hyderabad) also helped their cause.As for GT, their fears of the middle order were laid bare. In the 236-Runa Chase, Gill (35), Sai Sudharsan (21) and Jos Buttler (33), they left with 96 runs on Scorecard. It left the burden on a barely tested middle order to get them over the finishing line – and quickly. When Buttler left, GT needed 140 runs out of 10.3 overs. For the batting set, the depth of which was barely tested, largely to the fitness of the top three, it was an uncharted territory.Rutherford (38) and Shahrukh Khan (57) went through an 86-run rack, but when the former fell, he opened the floods when 182/3 became 202/9 in the range of four breaks.

“Criket basically plays your roles. Yes, our top -rs have done a job, which is good for us. But the thing for us – in the middle – is important for us to stay hungry. The good thing for us is that we have good preparation.“The day before the match, we performed training stimulation, which are things that as coaches try to keep us in connection with the game and make sure we are ready. And I think it is for us to have the right thinking.Rutherford stressed that after a discussion in the group, he took over the “teaching” of defeat about what they could do better. All these teachings will last test in the group phase on Sunday (May 25) when they accept Chennai Super Kings in a moved place at the Narendra Modi stadium in Ahmedabad.
