Shubman gill flop in t20i: In the Asia Cup 2025, Team India’s Test captain Shubman Gill was selected with great expectations. He was not only selected in the squad, but also submitted vice -captains. India had to break the fit opening pair of Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson to fit Gill in playing 11, as well as compromise on other things.
Despite all this, the magic of Shubman Gill was not seen and he proved to be Team India’s weak link in the Group Stage in the Asia Cup 2025. Gill was forced to play in an aggressive manner instead of playing her natural, as Team India is playing the aggressive brand cricket. Gill was also seen changing his style in the process of matching this, but he did not get success.
Shubman Gill has only the Asia Cup to prove himself. If he does not do well in further matches, then he may be in danger in his place, because India has many blistering batsmen. Gill had scored runs in IPL 2025 but has not been able to leave his mark in the Asia Cup yet.
Shubman Gill is proving to be a flop in Asia Cup
Shubman Gill, who is considered to be the all format player of the Indian team, has proved himself in Tests and ODIs, but he is still being tightened in T20 International, in which he is failing. Gill has not done anything special in this version of the Asia Cup yet and he is not among the top 10 batsmen who scored the most runs. His bat has scored just 35 runs in 3 innings at an average of 17.50. During this time his biggest innings has been 20 runs.
In such a situation, now Shubman Gill has a chance to prove himself in the Super 4 round. If he is unable to do anything special, then he can go to his place in the upcoming T20 series. Due to Gill, a tremendous opener is also not included in the squad but now his entry can be done.
Shubman Gill can be replaced by Yashasvi Jaiswal
India has to play T20 series against strong teams like Australia, South Africa and New Zealand in the coming times. In such a situation, Yashaswi Jaiswal can get a chance when Shubman Gill is a flop, who has been seen playing only in Tests for some time. Jaiswal has a stormy batting ability, due to which the opening pair of him and Abhishek Sharma can bring the bowlers under pressure from the beginning.
Yashasvi made a T20 International debut for India in 2023 and played his last match against Sri Lanka last year. Despite having more than a year, he has not got a chance again in Team India’s playing 11. Now Gill’s bat does not run, then Jaiswal’s luck can shine. He has so far scored 723 runs for India at an average of 36.15 in 23 T20I. During this period, 1 century and 5 half -centuries have also scored.
