Shubhman Gill: The Indian team was on a tour to Zimbabwe recently. A five-match T20 series was being played between the two teams. The team led by Shubman Gill defeated the host team 4-1. Let us tell you that this was the first series of this 24-year-old cricketer as captain.

In that sense, Gill impressed everyone in his first task itself. However, despite this, fans are criticizing Shubman Gill a lot. The reason behind this is quite shocking. Actually, he is being accused of ruining the career of two fellow players of the team. Let us know in detail, what is the whole matter.

Shubman Gill is being accused of ruining the careers of two players during the Zimbabwe series. It is not us, but thousands of fans on social media who are saying this. Actually, Yashasvi Jaiswal batted brilliantly for India in the fourth T20 match of the series.

This left-handed batsman scored 93 runs in 53 balls with the help of 13 fours and 2 sixes. He had a golden opportunity to score a century. However, captain Shubman Gill, who was standing at the second spot, instead of giving the strike rate to his teammate, himself scored the remaining runs and finished the match. After this, people on the internet criticized Gill a lot and even called him "selfish".

Ruturaj Gaikwad's career was also ruined

On 14th July, Team India played the last T20 match against Zimbabwe. Before this match, Shubman Gill dropped the in-form batsman Rituraj Gaikwad from the playing eleven. Let us tell you that this right-handed batsman scored 133 runs in 4 matches.

While Ruturaj Gaikwad played an innings of 77 runs in the second match, 49 runs came off his bat in the third T20. However, the team management said that the Indian player has been given rest for excluding him from the fifth T20. Shubman had to face the anger of social media users on this.
