Watched Virat Kohli Growing Up And It’s Incredible To See What He Does: Shubman Gill

As reported by Cricinfo, the youthful opener stated he was pleased to turn a strong start into a significant score during his remarks during the innings break. The Indian hitters, according to Shubman Gill, were attempting to determine how the surface plays and later target specific bowlers.

The 23-year-old claimed that there isn’t much to do when batting alongside Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Gill continued by mentioning India’s top batsman and remarking on how impressive it was to see Kohli as a child perform while batting.

The starter claimed that Kohli imparts to others the crucial knowledge of how to turn hundreds into 150 or 160.

“Always feels good to convert a start into a big one. We were not looking at any target and were just trying to see how the pitch plays. The odd ball was keeping low and there was not much spin. When you are batting with Rohit or Virat, you don’t have to do much. We were talking about targeting the bowlers and looked to score after the first three overs,” said Gill

“It is amazing to see what he does. I watched him growing up and it is incredible to see what he does. Once you get a start how to convert it into a hundred and how to convert those hundreds into 150-160 is a lesson we learn,” he added.
