Australians celebrated Rohit’s wicket casually. As if their work was done: Gill
With India losing Rohit Sharma cheaply on day four, as Gill explained, the Australians thought it was only a matter of time before they ended the India innings. So far, he shares insights from the moments that propelled him to a young career.
Shubman Gill is 21 years old and only enters his third Test when he finishes an inning, something he will tell his grandkids one day. Gill’s 91 on the final day of the memorable Gabba Test helped India set the stage for a successful chase of 328 on a course where no Australian team has been beaten since 1988.
With a 1-1 draw at the 2020/21 Frontier-Gavasca Trophy, Gill has started his Test career in the first two games and is off to a good start. In Melbourne, Gill had 45 and 35 not out as India bounced back from Adelaide’s low post for a stunning victory. In Sydney, he made his half-century debut in Tests and shot a confident 31 in the second inning.
However, his best result will be reserved for the final day of the Gabba test. With India losing Rohit Sharma cheaply on day four, as Gill explained, the Australians thought it was only a matter of time before they ended the India innings. Gill shares insights into the moment that propelled him to his young career so far.
“It was as if they (Australians) knew the parade had started. They celebrated as they pleased. Ho gaya kaam-types [as if their work was done],” Gill told veteran sports reporters after the dismissal of Rohit Sharma about the host team’s celebrations Jamie Alter in an interview with GQ Magazine.
The move backfired on Australians. Gill and Cheteshwar Pujara added a stubborn 114 run for the second wicket. Although Gill missed a maiden century, the 22-year-old put up a superb 91-point run, during which he took on Australia’s most menacing striker, Mitchell Starc. With the ball moving, Stark tried to press Gill with something from a short distance, but the youngster didn’t budge and quickly took the attack to his left arm. Any other young man in his early 20s would have preferred to kick them out, but Gill had other ideas.
“As a young man making his Australian debut, the biggest question in your mind is whether you can master the rhythm. Pat Cummins and Stark are known for their speed, while Josh Hazelwood is known for his line and length Famous. But when I was able to overcome that doubt, I felt comfortable dealing with that speed, it was all about my mindset,” Gill added.
“His and Cummins pitched us too short, my idea was to attack Stark. If you go back and look at those innings, you’ll notice I didn’t pull Cummins once. Pulling the ball off Stark, remember Staying shorter I feel like even if I had a top edge it would clear the fielder and allow me to get the boundary because he was bowling fast. Cummins had a bigger boundary on that end of the bowling so I told” I’ve only tried to pull up Starc myself and leave Cummins’ short ball alone. The idea was to hit every bouncer that Starc sent out, and I was rewarded that day. “
