Gill's captaincy debut has been quite balanced for him in the tour so far. The scoreline might reflect the dominance of England, but the Indian side has been at its attacking best to give a tough fight. The narrow 22-run loss at Lord's was the best example of India's attacking approach on the tour.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
With the fourth Test giving the final chance for the visiting side to bounce back, Manjrekar feels the break will allow Gill to reflect on his captaincy style and come out all guns blazing in Manchester.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cGill is a young captain, and he has already surpassed expectations, both with the bat and as a leader. The scoreline might be close, but India has won a Test match, and that\u2019s credit to how he has gone about it. This eight-day break comes at a perfect time for him.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"He has good people around him, and his father, more than anyone, would know what kind of personality Shubman really is, whether he\u2019s a potential Virat Kohli or Dhoni, or somewhere in between,\" Manjrekar said on JioHotstar.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"I\u2019m guessing somewhere in between. He has to find his own path now, a path that enhances both, his leadership and his batting. And, if there is anything coming in the way of either, he\u2019s got to quickly let go of it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"In the first Test, he was leaning heavily on Rishabh Pant and others. In the second, he started asserting himself, and the results followed. Now, after this little setback in the third Test, we might see the best of Shubman Gill, the captain, in Manchester. Hopefully, we\u2019ll also see the best of Shubman Gill, the batter,\u201d he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"I\u2019m guessing somewhere in between. He has to find his own path now, a path that enhances both, his leadership and his batting. And, if there is anything coming in the way of either, he\u2019s got to quickly let go of it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
This comes on top of workload management concerns that have restricted Jasprit Bumrah to just three of the five Tests in the series. He featured in the first and third Tests and with an eight-day gap between for the fourth Test, India have suggested they are \"leaning towards\" playing him at Old Trafford.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
