The Indian cricket team is in trouble in the second Test match against Australia. Rohit Sharma returns to the Indian team as captain. In the pink-ball Test in Adelaide, they won the toss and decided to bat first. Yashasvi Jaiswal was out on the first ball of the match. After that, second opener KL Rahul and No. 3 Shubman Gill tried to take control of the innings, but they too left after some time. Shubman Gill had a chance to prove himself again in this game, but he failed. Meanwhile, sources say that an Australian fast bowler has become Shubman Gill’s biggest enemy.
Shubman Gill scores 31 runs in just one innings
Shubman Gill now plays as the third batsman. He faced 51 balls in this game and scored 31 points. He hit 5 fours with the bat. Shubman may not be able to extend his innings, but he seems to be in good form. The ball moves well off his bat. Meanwhile, he made an error on a pass from Scott Boland and was thrown LBW. This is a huge blow to Australia and a heavy blow to India.
Shubman Gill has been dismissed 3 times in Tests so far
Shubman Gill and Scott Bolan fought against each other a few times, but Bolan won every time. Shubman Gill has now been dismissed thrice by Scott Boland. The bowler who has dismissed Shubman Gill the most times in Tests is James Anderson. He has sacked Shubman six times. While there are many bowlers who have dismissed Shubman thrice, the only bowler to have dismissed him in three innings of three games was Scott Bolan. Apart from Shubman, Bolan also sacked captain Rohit Sharma.
Josh Hazlewood has joined the squad
In fact, it’s interesting to note that if Josh Hazlewood had been fit, Scott Boland wouldn’t have played in today’s game. Josh Hazlewood missed today’s game with a muscle strain, so Australia called up Scott Boland for the first time in more than a year and he was dominant. Shubman Gill has bowled 28 balls with Scott Borlander so far in Test cricket, of which only 10 runs have come with his bat. He also went out three times. This means that even if Bolan plays in the upcoming matches, Shubman Gill will have to be extra careful.
