Former Indian cricketer and one of the finest spinners of all time. Harbhajan Singh drops a shocking statement about star Indian player who is suffering from a poor form and performance, Shubman Gill. However, Harbhajan also pointed out his exclusion from the T20 World Cup squad.
In the last 15 innings, Gill has only scored 291 runs at an average of 24.25. However, Harbhajan Singh said that Shubman Gill’s struggle in the recent matches clearly showcases the reason to keep him out of the squad.
“Shubman Gill is short of runs at the moment. No, it’s not a signal to Gill, you know, that he wasn’t really taking his place as granted. But the competition is so much and they’ve got, you know, too many players at the present scenario who can fill the slot and can do well for the team,” Harbhajan said at an event on Monday.
However, Harbhajan Singh also backs Gill and sends him strong wishes for the upcoming games and opportunity. “And this is not the end of the road for Gill. He’s a great, great player with beautiful technique. I think he will make a brilliant comeback. And not to forget, he’s still a Test captain for India.“
He also shared his thoughts on Ajit Agarkar and Suryakumar Yadav’s remarks on the T20I World Cup squad. “I was listening to Ajit [Agarkar] and Surya [Suryakumar Yadav], they were looking at the combination of the team, which will be best in the format. So I think giving that, those conditions and combinations, that respect. They chose this team. So Gill is a class player, there’s no doubt about it, and he’ll make a great comeback,” he said.
