He will definitely play in Vizag and let’s see how he prepares for the next Test. Don’t sideline Shubman Gill and don’t say that he can’t play. He can play. When you talk about emotions, he gives me a feeling of immense happiness and joy when he comes out to bat. I want to see him bat.” Kevin Pietersen admitted that Shubman Gill’s Test figures are much lower than those of a batsman of his calibre, yet he remains confident in his ability. Peterson said, “The averages are not looking good and it is not good to see these figures. You don’t want to see them.

I am worried about his performance in the second and third Test.”
