Shubman Gill Is A Natural Leader, Doesn’t Mind Questioning Methodology, Says Morgan
Kolkata Knight Riders: Former England white-ball captain Eoin Morgan believes Shubman Gill being appointed as India’s new Test captain is a correct decision, saying that the right-handed batter is a natural leader who isn’t afraid of methodologies behind various decisions.
On Saturday, chief selector Ajit Agarkar announced Gill’s appointment as India’s 37th Test captain, and his first assignment in the role will be a five-match tour of England, starting on June 20. Morgan had shared the dressing room with Gill when the duo were together in the Kolkata Knight Riders’ for IPL 2020 and 2021 seasons.
"The captaincy decision from India is the right one. I played alongside Gill for two seasons at Kolkata Knight Riders in the IPL and he is a natural leader. He doesn't mind questioning methodology,” said Morgan on Sky Sports Cricket ahead of day three’s play in the England-Zimbabwe Test at Trent Bridge.
