Shubman Gill has “already passed his toughest test as captain in England”, asserted India head coach Gautam Gambhir on Tuesday as he lauded the young leader for earning the dressing room’s respect by “saying and doing the right things”.
As he turned 44 on Tuesday, Gambhir had more than one reason to celebrate with India completing a Test series sweep over the West Indies, which was also Gill’s first series triumph as captain.
Asked how is he managing the 26-year-old, who was also recently handed ODI captaincy and will start in the role with an away series against Australia from Sunday, Gambhir was prompt with his response.
