WHILE everyone who follows Indian cricket knew it was only a matter of time before Shubman Gill was eased into the T20I set up, the selectors and team management put an end to the debate, naming the Test captain as Suryakumar Yadav's deputy for the upcoming Men's T20 Asia Cup.

Earlier this year, he was named as Rohit Sharma's deputy in the Champions Trophy.

The Many Shades Of Patriotism

OME years ago, I was briefly in the Netherlands. The taxi from the airport was a faded green Mercedes. The driver, in a suit and skull cap, was a burly man with a white, flowing beard.
