Shubman gill: The Indian team’s young opener Shubman Gill has been made the new Test captain of Team India. He will be the 37th captain of the Indian Test team. Before the announcement of Gill’s name, the captaincy race also included big names like KL Rahul, Rishabh Pant and Jaspreet Bumrah. But the BCCI finally approved Gill’s name.
It was being claimed in several reports that Team India’s head coach Gautam Gambhir was behind this decision. He was the one who agreed to the board in the name of Shubman Gill. But now it has been revealed that Gill was given the captaincy of the Test team at the behest of the friend of Team India captain Rohit Sharma. So let’s know who is this person… ..
In fact, after Shubman Gill was made the Test captain, several media reports were claiming that the head coach Gautam Gambhir is behind the BCCI’s decision. But now it has been revealed that Gill has been given the captaincy of the Test team at the behest of Team India’s former head coach Rahul Dravid. Former India head coach Rahul Dravid played a big role behind making Gill the captain. According to reports coming out, Gill’s name was approved only after talking to him. After the retirement of Rohit Sharma, fast bowler Jasprit was considered to be the big contender for Bumrah captaincy. But on the advice of the workload and medical team, he got out of the race.
Captain made of feedback of former coach
It is also being claimed in the report that when the selectors of Team India were discussing between Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant as the next Test captain of India, he sought Rahul Dravid’s opinion, during which he praised Gill’s leadership. According to media reports, Dravid’s feedback played a decisive role in making Gill the captain despite being an average of 35 in the Test.
A BCCI source said, “The selectors talked to Dravid as he had seen Gill from the beginning and had coached him in the senior team with Under-19. He had many good things about Gill’s ability as a leader”,
