Captain seen in Gill
Looking at the talent shown by Gill, the future captain is also seen in him. The age of the players who are with Rohit Sharma can come in the way of becoming the captain. On the other hand, if seen among the young players, there is Rishabh Pant but his form is a matter of concern. Shreyas Iyer is constantly troubled by fitness. In the new plant, Gill is seen as the only one who is fit and scoring runs. In such a situation, it will not be a surprise if he is appointed as the captain of the team later.
Gill has so far played 16 Test matches for India, scoring 921 runs at an average of 32.89. At the same time, 1311 runs have come out of his bat in 24 ODIs. Gill averages 65.55 in the 50-over format. In T20, Gill has played six matches and scored 202 runs including a century. Here his average is 404 and strike rate is 165.57.
