Gill and Kl Rahul are the two most technically sound batter in the team, and they would be expected to handle fast pace bowling of England Bowlers in their backyard where the ball do most of the talking.
The Kind of surface offered in England would certainly mean that there is so much swing and seam on offer and batter who usually tends out to be successful at these pitches are the ones who certainly knows the art of staying patient and playing ball based on the merit.
Gill and Rahul have those qualities imbibe in them especially after retirement of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli road won’t be easy for these two batters.
Indian Cricket team have an experience bowling lineup in their arsenal and they can give tough time to English batters in their own conditions.
Gill said on his style of captaincy “As leader I will make sure that I keep all aspect of communication open with players considering its a team game, also provide platforms to players where they can express themselves in the middle and keeping communication is always a good choice”
Gill have several responsibility on hat as he would not just be judged based on his captaincy skills and the amount of runs he scored in Upcoming England Series.
He is certainly one of the most important batter for India in the Upcoming England series and he would be expected to deliver big time especially in crisis situations.
Indian team will begun their campaign in June 20th will end their campaign in August with 5 test matches down England and so much to offer on the table it would certainly be one of the most exciting series played down under in England.
If India manages to win this series it would be miracle in itself as beating England in England you certainly need to go under skin of English players and make sure you deliver when it mattered the most.
