Rumors are circulating about Shubman Gill’s disciplinary record during the USA and West Indies T20 World Cup.
Shubman Gill will not play in the USA and the West Indies at the T20 World Cup.
At the end of the group stage, Shubman Gill and Avesh Khan, who were included in the T20 World Cup squad’s four-man reserve unit, left the United States. When the game advances to the Super Eight and the team travels to the West Indies, the two are requested to return home after being removed from the traveling group. The team will be joined by Rinku Singh and Khaleel Ahmed for the tournament’s Caribbean leg.
There were rumors of Gill’s disciplinary issues shortly after it was reported that they were leaving following India vs. Canada at Lauderhill, Florida, a match that was ultimately washed out.
Following the postponement of the India vs. Canada match, Indian batting coach Vikram Rathour denied rumors, saying that Gill and Avesh had been sent back before to the tournament’s start.
Rathour explained that the Super Eights would include only two reserves going to the West Indies.
This was always going to be the plan. There will be four players when we travel to the US. Two players will be released subsequently, while the other two will join us on the tour to the West Indies. Therefore, this strategy has been in place since the team selection. When weather forced an extension of India’s final group stage match against Canada, Rathour stated in the press conference, “This was planned, so we are just following that.”
The batter responded fiercely to the circulating rumors, even claiming that he and India captain Rohit Sharma had disagreements.
With the description, “Sammy and I learning the art of discipline from @rohitsharma45,” Gill shared an Instagram story with Rohit and his daughter Samaira.
India has dominated the T20 World Cup, winning matches against Pakistan, Ireland, and the USA before losing to the washout. India will play Afghanistan, Australia, and Bangladesh in the Super Eight. Face June 20, the Men in Blue take face Afghanistan in Barbados.
