IND vs Eng Test Series: The first match of the five -match Test series between India and England will be played in Leeds from June 20. There has been a big change in the Indian team before this tour. After retiring from the Test cricket of legendary players like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and R Ashwin, Shubman Gill has been given the captaincy of the Indian Test team for this series. Gill has been made the captain of the team despite having experienced players like Rishabh Pant, KL Rahul and Jaspreet Bumrah. This decision of BCCI is believed to be the beginning of the leadership of a new generation in Indian cricket.
Former England captain Michael Vaughan has also responded to Gill’s captain. Describing it as a big and bold step, Vaughan said that Gill has the ability to captain the team under foreign circumstances, but still he is yet to prove a lot. Von Gill praised Gill’s calm nature and the ability to play under pressure, but Vauan also said that England’s tour would be a real fire test for Gill’s career. Batting on foreign pitch will be a big challenge for Gill.
Relief was given to Rohit Sharma’s absence
Michael Vaughan has given a shocking statement about Rohit Sharma’s absence on this visit. He has said that Rohit Sharma’s absence of this series has said a relief for the Indian team. He says that if Rohit Sharma went to England to play this series, then his Test average would have remained around 30. He said that Rohit has been seen struggling to perform well.
Vaughan praised Virat Kohli and described him as a ‘separate level player’. Vaughan said that Gill should be seen as a new beginning for Indian cricket compared to Kohli. Vaughan believes that Shubman Gill can become the new face of Test cricket after Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, but for this they have to prove themselves in a challenging situation like England, where it is difficult to play in pitch and conditions.
Young players have a chance to prove themselves
Vaughan also praised the current young players of the Indian team. He especially praised Rishabh Pant’s vice-captain and described Rishabh Pant’s role in the team as the most important. He believes that the player like Pant is in the team increases energy and confidence. Vaughan said that this series of England will be a golden opportunity for Indian young players to prove themselves. He said that if these young players perform well, then there will be no surprise in it.
