Shubman Gill Finds It Easy To Simplify His Game- Monty Panesar
While speaking to PTI, former left-arm spinner Monty Panesar said that Shubman Gill is the type of player who finds it easy to simplify his game. He also added that Gill is more like Rohit Sharma than Virat Kohli.
“I think he’s the type of cricketer who finds it easy to simplify his game. You can see it in the way he bats. He has a few trigger movements. And then he just places the ball everywhere because he trusts his hand, his balance and his footwork”.
“He’s more of Rohit Sharma than Virat Kohli. But it will all depend on how he responds to the pressure over the next seven weeks or so”, the former England spinner said.
Ravichandran Ashwin Is An Aggressive Bowler: Monty Panesar
Talking about Ravichandran Ashwin, Panesar said that he is an aggressive bowler who can trouble both left-handers and right-handers.
“Ashwin is an aggressive bowler. He can change angles, taking the ball away from left-handers and bowling from around the wicket to the right-handers. But hopefully, he will not get too technical with his bowling and over-analyse”.
“He needs to keep his game simple because he’s got so much variation — off-spinner, carrom ball, reverse carrom ball. He’s just got to know when to use them at the right time,” he said.
Notably, Shubman Gill has become ill just ahead of the opening game against Australia. He might be benched in the opening game. Meanwhile, Team India is set to begin their stint in ICC World Cup 2023 with a match against Australia. IND vs AUS match takes place on Sunday, October 8 at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai.
