Shubman Gill gave a big statement
Let us tell you that after the first T20 match between Sri Lanka and India ended, Shubman Gill said during the post-match – Actually we were not nervous. We had a good conversation and we knew that we needed just 1 wicket (when Sri Lanka’s score was 140/1).
Gill further said- It is great to bat with him (Jaiswal) and we complement each other. Our style is different, our planning is simple. Assess the conditions and then face the bowlers. When you are starting the innings, see how the pitch is reacting and then play according to your plan.
On the other hand, if we tell you about this T20 series, then the Indian team has taken a 1-0 lead by winning the first match of the T20 series. So now the second T20 match between the two teams will be played today on 28th July, Sunday in Pallekele.
