By IANS News October 01, 2025 • 17:50 PM View: 320

Narendra Modi Stadium: India’s Test captain Shubman Gill, who just concluded his Asia Cup campaign and is set to lead the team in the two-match Test series against West Indies starting Thursday, said that switching from one format to the other is more mental than technical.

Addressing the media on Wednesday at the press conference ahead of the first Test in Ahmedabad, Gill spoke about how he prepared for the games, given the quick turnaround between white-ball and red-ball cricket.

“We had a couple of days of practice before the Test match, so it was a quick turnaround. I was just looking to work on defence and get in the zone; switching formats is more mental than technique.
