Watch: Abrar Ahmed bamboozles Shubman Gill and gives fiery send-off to leave Virat Kohli absolutely shocked

India National Cricket Team batter Shubman Gill played a decent hand for his team in the ongoing game against Pakistan National Cricket Team. The ICC Champions Trophy 2025 clash between the teams is taking place at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai.

Shubman Gill continued his golden touch with the bat as he played yet another vital hand for his team. The Indian vice-captain, who slammed a century in the last game, took the India National Cricket Team off to a great start in a chase of 242 runs against the Pakistan National Cricket Team.

Shubman Gill played Pakistan National Cricket Team bowlers with utmost ease, takes India off to a flying start with bat

Shubman Gill played Pakistan National Cricket Team bowlers with utmost ease as he hit them all over the park. The opening batter displayed an exhibition of high-class stroke play and put the bowlers under pressure. He added 31 runs for the opening partnership with Rohit Sharma, who scored 20 runs off 15 balls.

Shubman Gill was looking all set for another big innings but his stay at the crease was cut short by the brilliance of Abrar Ahmed. The mystery spinner produced a peach of a delivery and the batter had no clue to it.

Abrar Ahmed bowled a carrom ball, which was sharp, and squared the batter up. Shubman Gill got beaten by the ripper as he stepped back to play but missed it completely and went on to disturb the stumps.

What caught the attention of many was the celebration of Abrar Ahmed. The spinner came up with the cold send-off, and Virat Kohli at the other end also looked shocked.

Shubman Gill misses half-century by 4 runs, ends with innings of 46 runs off 52 balls ve Pakistan in ICC Champions Trophy 2025

Shubman Gill, with the way he batted, deserved a half-century but unfortunately missed the mark by 4 runs. The India National Cricket Team vice-captain ended with an innings of 46 runs off 52 balls. He had a strike rate of over 88 and slammed 7 fours in his innings.

Shubman Gill, who is the No.1 ranked batter in the ODIs, has been in red-hot form in the format. In the last five innings, he has slammed two centuries and two fifties. His scores read: 87(96), 60(52), 112(102), 101*(129), 46(52).

The onus now will be on Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer to take India home. While the former has slammed a magnificent half-century and is looking set for a ton, Iyer has looked decent. The duo would want to carry on and take Men in Blue to the second consecutive win in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.
