Virat Kohli is counted among the best players in the world. He has won many matches for Team India on his own. Indian fans will be expecting a big knock from him in the final of the World Test Championship against Australia. Now before the WTC final, Kohli has said a big thing for Shubman Gill.
Kohli said this
Former captain and veteran batsman Virat Kohli said that he is helping young player Shubman Gill for the betterment of Indian cricket. The 23-year-old opening batsman Gill has batted brilliantly in all three formats of the game in the last 12 months. Gill is considered as the successor of Kohli in the Indian team. Kohli is known as ‘King’ in the cricket world while Gill is known as ‘Prince’.
Speaking about these tags, Kohli said that he (Gill) talks to me a lot about the game, has a lot of eagerness to learn and has great skills for his age. He has an amazing ability to perform well. He is full of confidence. We have a relationship of respect and he understands that.
Indian cricket will benefit
Virat Kohli said that while helping him grow in the game, I want him to understand his own potential. By doing this, he will be able to play for a long time and perform consistently, which will benefit Indian cricket.
Shubman Gill did a great job
Shubman Gill scored 890 runs in IPL this year. He is second only to Kohli in the list of batsmen who have scored the most runs in a season of IPL. Kohli scored 973 runs in 2016. Gill has scored a double century against New Zealand in ODIs and has two hundreds in 15 Tests. Kohli feels he will be among the run-scorers in the World Test Championship final against Australia starting at The Oval on Wednesday.
