Shubman Gill is under the scanner as India heads into the 2nd T20I in Chandigarh, with his recent poor form raising concerns just months before the T20 World Cup.
Gill, who is also the vice-captain, managed only 4 runs in the first match against South Africa, intensifying questions about his consistency at the top.
Cricketer-turned-analyst Aakash Chopra weighed in, saying:
“There are many options available for the opening slot, and that is why the pressure is real.”
With competition high, Gill urgently needs a strong performance to secure his place.
Earlier, Sanju Samson had been tried as an opener, and several young batters are also pushing for opportunities, making the upcoming match crucial for Gill’s T20I future.
