IND vs BAN: Shubhaman Gill's condition worsened in just 8 balls!

Shubman Gill had the opportunity and the custom too. But, he missed this opportunity to play a big innings in Chennai. He wasted the chance to leave his mark in batting in the challenging conditions of Chennai. When Shubman Gill came to the crease, he was full of hope. But when he returned, all his 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 the wicket of Rohit Sharma.

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.

Voices started rising on social media.

Shubman Gill's batting has been in the dock in red-ball cricket. He has not been able to make his mark in this format as expected. The series against Bangladesh is like a big opportunity for him. But, after the way he has wasted the first innings in this 2 Test match series, it is obvious that fingers will be pointed at him again.

There has been a buzz about this on social media, where many fans are seen feeling bad for Ruturaj Gaikwad.

This is Shubman Gill's 26th Test. Before this, in the 25 Tests he played in his career, he has scored 1492 runs with 4 centuries and 6 half-centuries.
