Also, he also said an important thing about Shubman Gill, who became the new Test captain. Ashwin’s statement starts against England Test seriesIt has come before, which has intensified the discussion.
Discussions about Team India’s new Test leadership are in full swing, and now the name of veteran spinner R Ashwin has also been added to it. Ashwin has said big things about both Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant, praise on one side and light warning on the other side. From June 20 against England Test series Before starting, Ashwin said in an interview with Revspports that Rishabh Pant is a high-quality batsman in Test cricket, who can join the playing XI only on the basis of batting, even if he does not do wicketkeeping. But at the same time he also said that some questions arise about Pant’s shot selection.
Ashwin said, “Pant is a match -winning player, but many times the questions arise by looking at his shots. I think they should bat at number 5, because the number 6 goes down slightly. They can last at the crease for a long time and I cling to the TV when they batting.”
On the other hand, Ashwin expressed some concern about Shubman Gill. He said, “Shubman seems to be very overwell with the responsibility of captaincy and the care coming on it. If I had placed his place, I wanted to start well in the series as a batsman.”
Ashwin further said that batting on England’s pitches is not easy, in such a situation there will be many challenges in front of Gill. But he also described Shubman as a ‘special player’ and hoped that he would be able to perform well. In the end, Ashwin also said that at the moment Pant looks more ready and stable than Shubman in this series. They have experience and they look more reliable.
