Does Ruturaj have any original fans or are all Dhoni fans are his fan. Most of the the posts about him are from accounts with Dhoni or csk dp. At least Gill fans are not leftovers from some other fandom. Just an observation!
#ShubmanGill
This is why he is backed by the management!! Btw Gill was the first batter to hit six fours against Shaheen in his first spell in a t20. Off course Shaheen after this match has never been the same . But he did bowl really well against india prior to this !!
Looks like apart from Rajasthan Royals
@rajasthanroyals
every franchise handle tweeted for Shubman's birthday. Even chennai and Bengaluru!! Wonder why the Royals account seems to have some grudge against him!!!
Very good quality in this youngster Gill is his willingness to keep improving. Never gets annoyed at questions regarding form performance weakness etc like a few others. Very mature lad no wonder the management backs him. Surely his hardwork will pay of.
Gill said "In Test cricket, my performance has not matched my expectations so far - but we are going to play 10 Test matches this season and when I look back after those 10 Tests, hopefully, my expectations will be matched". [PTI]
@CricSubhayan
Honestly after this can't trust you again. This is not a mistake it's fabrication. Poor us Gill fans were thinking he did well in the warm up. Turns out the news is just a clickbait !!
All agenda peddlers after Gills batting position. Poor buggers will keep looking for someone to replace him. Lol the guy just made a brilliant 100 in India's last test match and a match winning 50 odd in a tricky chase. But yup let's look for options.
At this point, Gill's spot in the Test XI is largely unchallenged due to no decent replacement options at No.3.
Who do you think could also be a candidate to play at 3? Someone mostly in the radar.
Imagine if Ruturaj Gaikwad wins the Duleep Trophy with that kinda bowling crew, it's time to put Shubman Gill on permanent bench duty, retire him, his jersey, and crown Rutu as the FT Captain for the post-Rohit era!
Who makes these people comment on cricket. Gill literally scored a 100 in the last test match that india played in Dharmshala while Ruturaj averages 44 in first class cricket.
Ryan ten Doeschate mentioned Shubman Gill as one of the leadership group in the Indian team along with Virat and Hardik and the captains Rohit and Surya is such a big deal for the 24 year old. Hopefully he has a steller second half of the year batting wise !!
#shubmanGill
@rajasthanroyals
Polly Umrigar BCCIplayer of the year 2023. Only player with t20,ipl test and ODI centuries in the same year. Only fourth Indian batter to be the ODI world number 1. Even Rohit Sharma has not achieved that ! In short it's Shubman Gill!!!!
@Ben_Wisden
Ben I guess you ought to stick to watching the Ashes considering you are so bored 😴 of anything else !! But it sounds like sour grapes to everyone coz England are failing miserably you demean a tournament. Ask the Afghanistan or Netherlands fans if they are bored like you !!!!
@Sneaky_ix
@CricCrazyJohns
Lol has the highest ever average in odi !! Bullying a 24 year old when the person in your dp debuted at 26 in tests !! Too harsh
@Shebas_10dulkar
Wow what a surprise Gill has the highest average among all the Indian batters and he is just 24 and by the amount of hate that he gets in this app. This stat is seriously shocking.
All this crying and hysterics by random fandoms about Gill and his PR etc makes no iota of difference. Read Vikram Rathore's view. VR btw is the next head of NCA!! The management rates him massively. Gill just needs to keep exceeding their expectations.
#ShubmanGill
How beautifully captured the essence of india. Shubman Gill is definitely the future india captain so mature for his age. Now just concentrate on your own batting skills and the rest will follow.
So true people are just jealous of Gill"s rise . Yup he does have a lot to improve and grow but he is certainly on the right track. Those who troll him are just jealous agenda peddlers. Thankfully bcci realises his potential. He just needs to live up to them.
Comparing any random youngster to Shubman Gill is biggest disrespect
3rd highest run getter for India in this decade only behind Rohit & Kohli who have played 34 more innings.
But according to brainless agenda peddlers he is here because of PR 😂
#ShubmanGill
#TeamIndia
Seems like Shubman Gill's looks is such a bone of contention for people. The guy has the second best average with an over 100 strike rate in the history of odis and still gets called out for his looks. That too for someone who hasnt even made his debut.
#shub
Guy got dropped for 2 seniors despite being best T20 batter for 2 yrs
Guy ain't making his debut until the same seniors are present
He's better than that overhyped good looking Gill in every single format
@crickashish217
Yup the good thing with Gill is that he carries his form and confidence when he is in good form. Now big hundreds should be his next target. Has done it in A cricket. Lad had three double tons at 21. Two against international A sides .
This gives a perspective to those questioning Gills place in the odi side. He had been the best in the business in the last two years !! No question about his odi spot.
Saved their idols image by bowling a majestic spell in the final. Else whole narrative would have been how slow that innings was. Helped him to win so many test matches away from home yet this is the opinion of his fans !! Unbelievable!!!
Such a narcissist mf. Even in other interviews. Barely plays Test in Asian heat, rare 1-2 good knockout outings, Injured 1/3 part of his career, missed out on an ICC tournament coz of injury. "Ab toh sharam karle Bumrah"wale memes bante the but saar I am the fittest🤡 Starc clear
Anyone associated with this team recently be it R Sridhar who was the fielding coach or Vikram Rathore who was the batting coach see Gill as India's next all format star and captain apprentice. So they must see something in him. Should be an eye opener for his trollers.
@crickashish217
Also not going back to Rahane and Pujara, especially Pujara would have been so predictable stop gap arrangement with so many players missing in this series. But with no long term benifits. Credit where it's due to Ajit !!!
@Crick_logist
@karannpatelll
How do explain shamis performance in Ahmedabad that season around 15 wickets mostly in powerplay or the fact that no other better played that well there. Oh wait I think the pitch was changed mid innings. God what a sore person you are man.
@Crick_logist
Yup everyone in the management and the dressing room is a fool only Raazi knows what a mistake this is. Lol some people and their agendas never change. Gill is just 24 why not give him a chance. Rohit wc winner played around 80 odis on talent pant played 75 t20s.
Some of our experts underestimating Shubman. Let's bookmark and see 😁 in the next 5 years. Gill just looks destined for great things. Everyone in the management is of this opinion. But experts are sceptics!!
@riseup_pant17
These kids are not ipl bullies that's why BCCI are investing in them. Both were responsible for one of India's all time great series win. Both played only three matches in that series and did not even lose one after the embarrassment of Adelaide! No wonder they get a long rope!
@SergioCSKK
Lol are you for real. Gill is an all format talent for India . Rutu may be an IPL star but no where close to Gill in international cricket.
@APTalksCricket
Gill is a lock at 3. His temperament in pressure situations is proven beyond doubt. He is the future too can't have him compete with someone who is aging and unfit . Also next series in Australia is where Gill already has a much better record.
@DanCricket93
Btw SA couldn't beat india in any of the formats this time. That's a plus as an Indian fan. Much better than last time. But this last test was a lottery could have gone either way. Sad for the batters and their averages.
@srini_r_twit
Yup and not as if he dismissed him under 30 or something it was after being hammered by him. Also knew he must have started it. Gill doesn't seem like the type to tell him to retire without provocation.
@InswinginMenace
He actually captained SKY Rutu Rajat etc at 19 years old in deodhar trophy. Unfortunately for ipl bots like you the team management and the selectors don't only watch ipl and they are definitely not swayed by tatoos and girlfriends 🤣🤣
@devilscricket
I think people are using Gills name for engagement these days. He is the most promising youngster and unfortunately in the world of social media negativety brings more eyeballs . So poor Gill will keep being the victim of that. These people need to be ignored!!
Yup never played against a full strength international attack. Should have been out first ball in the second t20 against the only good bowler in zim if muzarabani held the catch. Will get a chance in SA soon ( Gill & jaiswal in test squad)let's see what he does !
@sujeetsuman1991
Very ambiguous statement this. What numbers there is a difference of 2 in their strike rates. Also Gill did not play against teams like Nepal etc in the Asian games , Ireland and Australia C etc. Gills ceiling is way higher than Rutu !!
@BestOfBatters
One of his most fluent innings . Was 50 runs behind Rohit and completed his century just one over after Rohit. Very confident and impressive!!! Some beautiful shots against Anderson Wood etc !!
@venkatatweets
What a beautiful tweet thank God I saw this after going through some appalling vile things on Twitter just now. As venkat says enjoy the master and the apprentice especially in a WTC and WC year
@tigerpranav1
God what an embarrassment these guys are. Plotting the downfall of an indian player. All sympathy that I have for Rutu goes out of the window after reading all this. Disgraceful!!!!
@toecrushrzzz
It's not only about intent. Intent doesn't mean blind slogging. You have to have some level of consistency too right. Btw his strike rate is less than Gill Shaw etc this season .
@devilscricket
Lol 😂 he literally hates Gill no hiding away from that fact now..I think Gill may have refused an interview with him or something 😕!! Needs to be reported bringing hate to a 24 year old
@LM10Supremacy
Gill missing out on big hundreds even in tests. Very strange coz he did get big hundreds at the india A level even on away tours. Hopefully he rectifies that in the next home series and in Australia too make it big if he gets in!!
@rahulmsd_91
Haha averages a mighty 17 and getting compared to the highest run getter this year. The number 1 batter in the world. Must be a privilege for Rutu. In all honesty won't get many more chances especially in odis .
@ShubmanGang
@CricCrazyJohns
People are just jealous. Someone who is so successful at such a young age just irritates these Twitter warriors who have nothing better to do than bring down a youngster who is giving his best. Played through dengue illness just coz he does not have a sob story.
@ShubmanGang
@ShubmanGill
@imVkohli
His redemption will be spectacular don't worry . He should keep working hard and continue being positive !! Lovely to see such a genuine and secure youngster!!
@WisdenCricket
Better batting than peak Bazball. Pantball was so beautiful hopefully we will see it again sooner rather than later. Ind vs England 2024 🤞
@Im_GautamPandey
What a stupid take this is.maybe you don't follow any cricket not odis at least. Gill is statistically the best odi batter right now. Only one in the world to have 60 plus average at more than 100 st and fastest 2000 int runs. His international rec is better than their domestic!
@Muhammad_Asd_
@_FaridKhan
Yup we know first WC knockout 80 not out of 66. Lol Pak batters are definitely better coz they don't reach knockouts ever. In odis 🤣
@time__square
Lol this tweet reels of jealousy if all of them came in winning causes like yesterday it's absolutely great, love Rohit Sharma too but these fan banters are jarring especially for an ITC lover. VK in form augers well for captain RS remember that .
@crickashish217
Also how he grooms the youngsters. Rahul was so great with it. Dunno how GG will fare. My only worry is test cricket. Don't want the standards of our test team to be compromised in any way.
@TayyBA56
@CricCrazyJohns
Australia ko unke Ghar pe test series harane me major role play karne pe. 😂 . You guys are going to Australia this winter. Watch what you do there.
@CricCrazyJohns
Very good quality in this youngster Gill is his willingness to keep improving. Never gets annoyed at questions regarding form performance weakness etc like a few others. Very mature lad no wonder the management backs him. Surely his hardwork will pay of.
@sajfau86
@BCCI
@Kohli_Goat_
@ShubmanGill
@mdsirajofficial
Ranking is not just for the world cup though is it. He has almost 1500 runs this year at an average of over 63 and a strike rate of almost 100. Also knock outs of the world cup still left. He was sick at the start and getting in his grove slowly.
@ESPNcricinfo
Lol this is hilarious 🤣🤣 considering most of these tests were at home. And look at all the averages of the batters all touching 50 ,I guess they play according to their priority individual performance no team efforts
This is true !! He really needs to work hard with some good coaches. These next few months will be make it break for his test career!! Has an issue with the off stump doesn't always seem sure of it and let's the earlier dismissals play on his mind. Lots of determination needed!
@udit_buch
@PeterDellaPenna
He is influenced by Farid khan type of people and realised that trolling india and indian stars results in more impressions. That can be the only reason. Pity. Used to like his content .
@208off149
Finally some long overdue luck 🤞 going his way early on. From then on a fluent 100 one of his best in test matches. Fingers crossed this is the start of a fantastic test career. Also hopefully india wins tom that will be the cherry on the cake .
@rahulk_1019
A 24 year old has more maturity than a 42 year old middle aged man. Wow 😂. Such a grumpy old man Anderson is what I hate is how they look down upon runs in India. If it's so easy better tell your teammates to get some as well.
@Rajiv1841
Yup great combination. Jitesh/ Sanju interchangeable basis ipl performance I guess. But Rohit and KL definitely not opening they got two chances in two different WCs . What about Pant in case he has a stellar ipl ???
@ESPNcricinfo
So Anderson started this. Lol Gill should have told him I have a series victory in Australia where you guys fail to win a single test. Also got him out after he made a majestic hundred in a series winning performances. Not like Jimmy who lost all the four tests he played . Loser
@beliketweety
To be honest no comparison in the ODI format. He does need to crack the test and T20 format though. Just hope he does well in the forthcoming test series. Don't like to see people doubting his place or pedigree!!!
@srini_r_twit
It's not irrational to be honest. He has this know it all air about him and does not give credence to any opposing viewpoints! Pretty annoying most of the time
@SkyCricket
Hopefully
@nassercricket
does not call this pitch a bunsen burner two years down the line like he did when he interviewed Duckett who played on the flattest of tracks in 2016. Three Indian youngsters managed 400 odd on the same day .
@Alphapratheep
@devilscricket
Honestly there is no sacrifice etc. Yashasvi and he were in the WC 18 so they were the designated openers only coz yashasvi was delayed Abhishek opened. So let people cry it's a bcci decision. Also a temporary captain has very little say. It was a management decision.
@randomcricstat
Lovely thread. Kudos Rahul Dravid and Rohit Sharma too for believing in the youngster even before his ipl masterclass this year. All the best to him for a wonderful WC campaign!
@Naji_Gill_77
@ShubmanGill
Looking forward to a double hundred from him soon enough. The pace at which he bats gives him enough time to get there. Hope he converts his next test hundred to a big one hopefully in one of the next few tests.
@duplantis__
@LM10Supremacy
This aspect of making big 100s gave gone missing from his game. Also the reason for his middling test average. Once he starts making big 100s again things will start looking better. Hopefully starting this home season.
from hearing this name since his u19 days,
from catching his glimpse since his earliest ipl days,
from buying those talks about his potential since his first australia tour itself,
yet
being annoyed as well bcause of those comparisons-specially with kohli😹,
from holding myself
@rsudharshan95
@tea_yesss
Such a Shame that none of them looks to be part of the starting line up. Just by virtue of their strike rates against SLA someone like Gill or jaiswal should open.else every team will have a field day with Rohit and Kohli just use SLA in the powerplay
@Crick_logist
Uncle 😡 you are a biased so called journo with no understanding of cricket. Has played only 20 matches. Two years his ipl stats are best in the business. So don't try to be oversmart and demeaning by calling someone named. Keep crying Gill is here to stay .
@EdenGardens1214
@78
Hoping he cracks the SA test too. Has had a mixed bag to be honest in test matches after the great start to his career in Australia.
