India’s emerging icon Shubman Gill came on fans’ radar due to his poor form with the bat in the last few matches. While he was expected to score better in the second match, Gill could only manage to come up with 34 runs before getting dismissed off a James Anderson delivery in the 29th over. The 24-year-old has played some remarkable match-winning knocks for the side; however, his recent form has been a major concern for the Indian side. In the previous match, Gill scored only 23 runs and walked back to the pavilion on a duck in the second inning.
Another poor show by Gill drove fans crazy and they took to social media to slam the batter. Here’s how fans reacted:
Notably, Yashasvi Jaiswal hit his third Test half-century and he brought it up in 89 deliveries.
