Fans Troll Shubman Gill After Yet Another T20 Failure

Indian vice-captain Shubman Gill is under scrutiny after a string of poor performances in the T20 series against Australia. In the third T20I held in Hobart on November 2, Gill managed only 15 runs off 12 balls, leading to a wave of criticism from fans and analysts alike.

Struggles at the Crease

Gill’s dismissal came when Nathan Ellis clean bowled him with a convincing lbw decision. Despite opting for a DRS review, the technology confirmed that the ball would have struck the stumps, leaving Gill further frustrated.

His recent form has been alarming; in his last ten innings, Gill’s total runs stand at just 184, averaging 23 without a single half-century to show.

Fan Reactions

The disappointment among fans on social media has been palpable. One user tweeted, “At this point, can we really rely on Gill?” while another chimed in, “He needs to step up or step aside.”

Former cricketer analysts have also voiced concerns over his current form, particularly his inability to score significant runs in pressure situations. Their sentiments echo the growing frustration among cricket enthusiasts.

Series Update

As India is now down 0-1 in the five-match T20 series, the pressure mounts for Gill and the rest of the squad, especially with the expectation to perform under pressure. After 8.3 overs, India found themselves at 87/3, needing to chase 187 runs for victory.

With the next match looming, fans are eager to see if Gill can bounce back and prove his worth in the team.
