Shubman Gill had the opportunity and the custom too. But, once again he failed to grab it in red ball cricket. He wasted another chance to leave his mark in batting in the challenging conditions of Chennai. Shubman Gill came to the crease with high hopes. But when he returned, all hopes were washed away. Even after playing 8 balls, he failed to open his account. Shubman Gill was out on zero. He too was made a victim by the same Bangladesh bowler who took Rohit Sharma's wicket.
Just like Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill also had no answer to the balls of 24-year-old Bangladeshi fast bowler Hasan Mahmud.
The third ball of the 8th over of the Indian innings took the edge of his bat and landed straight into the gloves of Litton Das standing behind the wicket. And, in this way, India suffered the second blow.Shubman Gill stepped on the Chepauk pitch after the dismissal of captain Rohit Sharma. He did not seem to be anywhere near living up to the expectations with which he stepped on the wicket. He had no answer to the flying balls of the Bangladeshi bowlers. Gill was seen struggling from the first ball itself and finally his innings came to an end on the 8th ball.
