After becoming the T20 World Champion, Team India's Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja retired. Now before the next T20 World Cup, preparations are on to fill the place of these veterans in Team India. For this, many contenders have come in Team India, some of whom are currently playing T20 series on Zimbabwe tour. This series is important not only in terms of place in the team, but also in terms of future captain because Shubman Gill is captaining in this series. However, the start has not been good for Gill. After losing the first match, in the next match, Gill took some such decisions which raised questions.

Just a week after winning the World Cup, the T20 series between India and Zimbabwe started. Many players have got a chance in this series for the first time. Also, Shubman Gill has also got the captaincy of Team India for the first time, who has not only become an important part of Team India, but is also considered the future captain. In such a situation, this series is also like an opportunity for him to show his captaincy. However, his debut in captaincy was not good as Team India had to face defeat by 13 runs.

Thinking changed only after one defeat

In the first match, the bowlers of Team India did a good job from their side but the batsmen disappointed and the team could not even achieve the target of just 116 runs.

In such a situation, the very next day when Team India came out for the second match, captain Shubman Gill made some big changes, in which the fear of defeat in the first match was clearly visible. First of all, Gill won the toss this time too but unlike the first match, this time he chose batting for Team India. In the first match, Gill had chosen bowling and the team had to face trouble while chasing.

Till here it was still okay but the decision made by Shubman Gill regarding the playing eleven was surprising. After just one match, it was decided to change the playing eleven. Young batsman Sai Sudarshan was given a chance to make his international debut. Gill said that this was done so that the team's batting could become stronger. In return, fast bowler Khalil Ahmed was dropped, who proved to be expensive in the first match.

This decision should not cause harm

The surprising thing is that Team India increased the batting but then decided to bat first, which can be detrimental.

In T20 cricket, especially the team batting first strengthens its bowling so that it can defend any kind of score. Here, Team India weakened its bowling in an attempt to strengthen its batting. This is because the team now has only 4 main bowlers, while to fulfill the role of the 5th bowler, part-time bowlers Abhishek Sharma and Riyan Parag will have to make do, which can be the reason for defeat on a good batting pitch.
