Srinagar: Former India cricketer and coach, Ravi Shastri has warned Shubham Gill that likes of Cheteshwar Pujara are waiting in the corner after youngster got out for another low score in the second Test vs England.
Gill got out for 34 against England in the 2nd Test at Visakhapatnam.
“It’s a fresh side, a young side. These youngsters have to prove themselves. Don’t forget, Pujara is waiting. He is grinding it out at the Ranji Trophy and is always in the radar,” Ravi Shastri said while on commentary.
Pujara, who last played a Test for India in the final of the World Test Championship, has been milking runs for Saurashtra, scoring a double century against Jharkhand, followed by scores of 49, 43, 43, 66 and 91 in subsequent innings.
“It’s a Test match; you’ve got to stay out there. Otherwise, you’ll get into all sorts of problems. You’re going with those hard hands, reaching out at the ball. Especially with someone of Anderson’s class,” added Shastri.
