We Are Satisfied As A Team: Shubman Gill

While speaking during the post-match presentation, Indian opener Shubman Gill said that the Indian team was satisfied with their performance.

“Yeah it feels good. We are satisfied as a team. We have the momentum at the right time”, the right-handed batsman said.

Shubman Gill started slow in IND vs AUS 2nd ODI. Later, he gained momentum and shattered 4 sixes and 6 fours to gather 104 runs in his kitty at a strike rate of 107+. Speaking about the same, the 23-year-old said he has the confidence that he can cover up his strike rate later.

“It depends on the situation, there is definitely some confidence that I can cover up later, I have that confidence because I am scoring at the moment. Yeah, definitely with the way KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav played, they kept the momentum going. 400 on any ground is tough to chase, and the bowlers did the task,” Shubman Gill added.
