Gill’s Omission Surprising, Maybe Lack Of Form And Touch Went Against Him, Says Gavaskar
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Legendary India batter Sunil Gavaskar described Shubman Gill’s omission from the T20 World Cup squad as surprising, suggesting that a lack of form and touch may have gone against the right-handed opener.
At the press conference held in BCCI HQ on Saturday, Gill's omission from the squad for the T20 World Cup and series against New Zealand emerged as a huge talking point. Since returning from the Asia Cup, Gill struggled to get going, with his highest score being 47 across 15 innings.
"It is a surprise. He is a classic, quality batter who had a fabulous season post the 2024 T20 World Cup. Yes, he struggled in a few matches against South Africa. But class is permanent, and form is temporary. He was also coming back after a long break and was out of rhythm.
