Meanwhile, the former Indian chief selector also suggested that Gill’s place in India’s T20I side is safe despite his recent struggles in the 2025, thanks to his sub-captains that were given after his sensational form in forms.
Gill dominated IPL 2025 to scored 650 runs in 15 matches, an average strike rate of 50 and 155.87. He took the form in the recent Test series in England, where he scored 754 runs, with four centuries named after him at an impressive average of 75.
Srikanth signed, saying, “The a lot of fact is that he has given him a vice-captain, it means that he is a certainty. I had a pre-Asia Cup in the expected 15-Man Squad, he was not in my team. In fact, many people did not expect him to be in 15.
