Ahead of India playing a two-day warm-up match against Prime Minister\u2019s XI at the Manuka Oval on Saturday and Sunday, Gill joined the batting session by facing the throwdowns initially.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
After 30 minutes of facing it, he faced Prasidh Krishna, Akash Deep, and Yash Dayal for a short while, which showed the first signs of Gill making a possible return to the second pink-ball Test at the Adelaide Oval, starting on December 6.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cIt was my first day (of practising after injury). I was just trying to get a feel, to be honest, see how the injury is reacting, if there is any kind of jardness or soreness with me playing. But it actually went much better than I and Kamlesh bhai (Jain, Indian team physio) expected, and I'm very happy with that,\u201d said Gill in a video posted by the BCCI on their \u2018X\u2019 account.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
In his absence, Devdutt Padikkal was added to the squad from the India \u2018A\u2019 side and made scores of 0 and 25 as India won by 295 runs to go 1-0 up in the five-match series. \u201cAny ball, when it hits the bat, especially the middle of the bat, and the feeling that you get is what I play for. When I got to know about my injury for the first couple of days, I was quite low, a bit disappointed.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cPerth is the only venue where I haven't played when we came the last time. I was looking forward to playing there as it's such an iconic venue. But the way we played that game, and by the end of it, I was very happy with the way that we played and we won the game,\u201d added Gill.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
