Shubman Gill had a appalling begin to the new season of the IPL as he had gotten out for a duck. But after that he made revises as he scored two back to back half-centuries and got closer to getting his to begin with IPL hundred.
Not Many People Had Given Us The Chace Before The Season: Shubman Gill
Shubman Gill in the post-match presentation said, “It’s quite pleasing. When you’re there till the end, you finish the match for your team. It was one of the goals I had before the start of the season that I want to finish at least three or four matches for the team.”
When asked about the conditions while batting he said, “I didn’t expect the ball to seam as much in the start but it was nipping around in the first three or four overs. I was expecting their spinners to get turn. I felt that they didn’t bowl up as much. If Krunal would have bowled up, it would have been difficult for us. But he was bowling short, a bit conservative and it was easy for us to maneuver around and we kept on picking those singles which are important on these type of wickets.
On becoming the first team to qualify for the playoffs he said, “Coming into the season, not many people gave us a chance or thought we’d qualify but here we are sitting on top of the table so it feels pretty good.”
