Shubhaman Gill may be out of Bangladesh series, this wicketkeeper batsman may get a chance to return
Shubman Gill (Photo Source: Getty Images) India’s white-ball vice-captain Shubman Gill is likely to be rested for the three-match T20 series against Bangladesh. The series will start on Sunday, October 6 in Gwalior. Gill, who is an integral part of the Indian Test team, may be rested as part of workload management. According to media reports, Mohammed Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah are set to be rested. Gill, who bats at number three for India in Test matches, is an important player in the team’s top order along with Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Yashasvi Jaiswal and is expected to play all 10 Tests this season. In such a situation, the doors of Team India can open for Ishan Kishan, who has been trying to make a comeback in the Indian team for a long time. According to media reports, if Pant does not play the upcoming T20 series, then Kishan’s return is almost certain. Shubman Gill will be rested from T20 series against Bangladesh Hindustan Times quoted a BCCI source on the condition of anonymity as saying, “Yes, Shubman will be rested for the T20 International series against Bangladesh. If you look at the list of matches, three T20 Internationals will be played on October 7 (Gwalior), October 10 (Delhi) and October 13 (Hyderabad). Now the first Test against New Zealand will start from October 16. He further said, “So it is important to give Gill rest because of the gap of just three days.” Gill has played 21 T20 Internationals so far and has one century and three half-centuries to his name. He has scored runs at a strike rate of around 140. He was recently appointed captain for the five-match T20 International series against Zimbabwe in Harare which India won 4-1. Now it will be interesting to see whether Rishabh Pant plays the T20 International against Bangladesh or not as his workload is of paramount importance to the selectors and he is needed in longer formats. If Pant is rested, then Ishan Kishan’s name can once again be considered after being out of international cricket for nine months this year. Ishan Kishan recently scored a century in the Duleep Trophy.
“Dhoni didn’t bat much in the nets, he preferred bowling”- Aakash Chopra narrated a funny anecdote about Mahi
Aakash Chopra recalls how MS Dhoni’s breathtaking shot stunned him. (Photo Source: X(Twitter) Before MS Dhoni, Dinesh Karthik debuted for India as a wicketkeeper-batsman. While Dhoni later went on to become the most successful wicketkeeper-batsman, Karthik’s place in the team suffered due to his unavailability. With the competition getting tough, former India cricketer Aakash Chopra revealed that the Ranchi batsman used to bowl to Karthik in the nets. Indian player Aakash Chopra also shared a funny anecdote related to Dhoni. He said that while playing for India A, Dhoni played a shot which he did not practice in the nets. It was in 2004, when Aakash Chopra and MS Dhoni were in Bangalore for India A’s camp. Akash Chopra made a big revelation about MS Dhoni Akash Chopra, while recalling his old days with MS Dhoni, said that ‘Dhoni and I have a very old relationship. I had played for India by then. We had a camp in Bangalore. When I reached the hotel, I was told that Dhoni is my roommate. I was told that he is from Ranchi. I had seen Dhoni playing in the Deodhar Trophy earlier as well. Where he had scored a lot of runs. Apart from this, I did not know him much at that time. Then we were roommates in Bangalore for a month. Dhoni was carefree. While playing for India, he played a reverse sweepshot against a Pakistani bowler named Iftikhar Anjum which was beyond my imagination. Because I had never seen Dhoni hit such a shot in the nets. Dhoni did not bat much in the nets. He used to bowl to other batsmen in the nets except Dinesh Karthik. Akash further said, ‘Dhoni’s phone used to ring a lot. But he never picked up the phone. ‘Once I asked Dhoni what time he sleeps. He said that you can sleep whenever you feel like it. Dhoni was a non-vegetarian and I was a vegetarian. But he ate vegetarian food for 1 month for me. He was also very shy at that time.’

Then he called out to me, ‘Come here!’. Then he said, ‘What happened? Everything is fine? You have come because you have the strength, you have potential. Relax, be carefree. If you want to hit the first ball, hit it. Just be 100 percent sure and hit it’. That was the conversation and it happened before I had even made my debut.” Jurel, who plays for Uttar Pradesh in domestic cricket, said the mood in the Indian dressing room is much lighter than in his state team. He also recalled the incident when he was hit on the shoulder by India’s throwdown specialist Raghu in the nets and revealed what Axar Patel and Shreyas Iyer told him after that.

I was facing Raghu bhai in the nets and I hit a very good drive to him. On the very next ball, he hit a big bouncer on my shoulder. Then Axar and Iyer came to shake hands with me. I was surprised why they were shaking hands with me. They just said, welcome to Indian cricket!”
