Shubman Gill dropped for a second spinner
Hindustan Times Noida
|December 27, 2024
It was clear something was afoot early in the day when, during the warm-up session, Shubman Gill was on the field for only a short period.
MELBOURNE: He didn't do much and left way before the toss on Thursday at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. The decision to drop him must have been quite a blow for a batter who is looked at as one of the big prospects of Indian cricket.
When it emerged that Gill had been dropped to accommodate a second spinner in Washington Sundar, the surprise was even bigger because it meant that India would be lining up with six bowlers - Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Akash Deep, Ravindra Jadeja, Washington Sundar and Nitish Reddy. And no matter how you see it, one can't help but feel that is a bowler too many.
