Fans on Twitter react as Indian skipper Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill practised together in the net session. They were delighted to see the duo batting together in the nets and backed them to open the innings in the third Test against Australia.
Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill practice together in the net session
Indian Cricket Team so far has done a staggering job in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy. They have thumped the opposition in the first two games by big margins and have taken a 2-0 lead in the series.
The third Test between India and Australia is now slated to take place from 1st to 5th March in Indore. There have been a lot of speculations about Rohit’s batting partner for the upcoming Test. KL Rahul has been sacked as the vice-captain of the side amid his torrid run in the Tests.
The question still remains whether the team will back KL Rahul in the third Test or not. The batter failed drastically in the first two games and has an average of just 33 in over 45 games. On the other hand, Gill has been in fine form of late and registered a ton in the last Test he played.
With just one day remaining for the third Test, youngster Shubman Gill was seen practising alongside skipper Rohit Sharma in the nets. This could well be an indication that Gill might come in for the third Test in place of Rahul.
