The incident of Shubman Gill, raising the English opener, has added a very important drama to the Anderson-Tendulkar Test series.
Lords stressed in minutes of day 3, and India captain Shubman Gill found himself in the middle of a boiling point. However, former England batsman Jonathan Trot was not affected. Digging a thin veil in Gill’s aggressive performance, Trot suggested that the “acting” and confrontation of the young captain was reminiscent of Virat Kohli. However, it was not flatter.
Lords Lords on Drama
With only six minutes left on day 3, India was secretly desperate in two overs before England’s score of 387. But Zak Croly had other plans. The England opener took a minute to take the guard, then stopped Jasprit Bumrah twice. Once a hit on the glove, and again to complain about the movement near the vision screen.
The delay strategy worked. Only one over was bowled before the stumps. But more attention attracted than the clock, Shubman Gill’s response. The Indian captain turned to a storm towards Croly, an explain-lesed comment (“something B ****”) and a sarcastically copied for a replacement, suggesting that Croley should be replaced as a player.
Ben Docket joined Crlay as stress increased. Bumrah, KL Rahul, and others surrounded the openers with sarcastic clapping and converted Lord’s into a theater of the Mind Games.
Trot: “Gill’s performance like previous captain”
Reacting to hot exchange, Jonathan Trot, speaking on Gehotstar, questioned Gill’s on-field behavior and achieved similarities with former captain Virat Kohli, who was known for his intense and animated appearance worldwide.
,A little sportsmanship, but I think England, for me, we do not know what happened when England was fielding, were they excluding it. I don’t like acting from Shubman Gill“Trot commented. “I just think as a captain, you set the tone. As I have said earlier, you know, pointing to the fingers and a little conflict, like a previous captain, like reaching the face of the opposition.”
“I don’t think it’s about it. I think it determines a bad tone. And I am ready to be competitive and to be strict on the field. I think you’re sometimes you’ve risen on it.”
