“He must have learned a lot by having players like Rohit Sharma….”- Former English captain said about Shubman Gill

Shubman Gill (Pic Source-TWITTER) Former England cricketer Nasser Hussain was recently asked to choose the young cricketers whom he considers to be the future superstars of the game. The former England captain immediately picked India’s Shubman Gill and New Zealand’s Rachin Ravindra and explained why these two players can rule the cricket world in the future. However, Nasir Hussain also believes that Gill would have learned a lot by batting with Indian captain Rohit Sharma, calling the young player a super talent and a big star for the future of Team India. Nasir Hussain praised Shubman Gill fiercely In the video shared by ICC, Nasir Hussain said, “I am going with Shubman Gill. I think three-quarters, nine-tenths of them in 2023 were very good. Having players like Rohit Sharma at the other end, he must have learned a lot. Maybe, in the end, that illness bothered him a bit and his form deteriorated. He is a super talent and he is going to be the next sensation for India in the coming years. Hopefully 2024 will be good for him.” Furthermore, Hussain lauded the performance of youngster Rachin Ravindra, who impressed everyone with his performances in the ODI World Cup 2023 and finished the tournament as one of the leading run-scorers of the competition. Hussain expressed hope that Ravindra will continue his excellent performance in future also. Hussain said, “And the man who lit up the World Cup was Rachin Ravindra. Before going to the World Cup, I saw him for a while in England. He came in lower down the order at Lord’s and created a stir all around. I thought, he can play. When he was given a chance in the top order, he performed brilliantly there. Hopefully, he will continue his form.” Also read: What is Hardik Pandya proving by posting the video with his son?
