Shubman Gill: Team India, captained by Shubman Gill, is currently on a tour of Zimbabwe to play a 5-match T20 series. Four matches of the series have been played and the Indian team is leading 3-1. At the same time, the last match is going on in Harare. For this match, captain Shubman Gill has made 2 big changes in the playing eleven. He dropped a strong player who was in great form, after which Gill's intentions are being questioned.
Chennai Super Kings captain Ruturaj Gaikwad has shown tremendous performance for Team India on the Zimbabwe tour. He was out cheaply in the first match, but after that he played brilliant innings in the next two matches. At the same time, he did not get a chance to bat in the fourth match. But despite this, captain Shubman Gill has dropped Gaikwad. In his place, out-of-form Riyan Parag has been included in the playing XI.
Despite performing well in domestic and IPL, Ruturaj Gaikwad does not get many opportunities in Team India. In such a situation, when he was included in the squad against Zimbabwe, it was felt that he could secure his place in the blue jersey team by showing good performance here.
After failing in the first match, Ruturaj played a stormy innings of 77 * (47) in the second T20 and 49 (28) in the third T20. In such a situation, it is believed that Shubman Gill has dropped Ruturaj Gaikwad from the playing XI to cement his place in the team.
27-year-old Ruturaj Gaikwad has played 23 T20 matches for India so far, in which he has scored 633 runs at an average of 39.56 and a strike rate of 143.53. During this, 1 century and 4 half-centuries have also come from his bat. At the same time, the right-handed batsman has scored 115 runs in 6 ODIs, which also includes a fifty.
