R Ashwin on Gill: I don’t want Shubman to become vice-captain, Ashwin gave big advice to Gill
News India Live, Digital Desk: We all know that whenever Kirvichandran Ashwin (R Ashwin) speaks, he does not talk about anything. He brings straight ‘logic’ and ‘science’. Recently, when Shubhman Gill was made the vice-captain in ODI and T20, the fans were divided into two groups. On one side are those who consider Gill a ‘Prince’, and on the other side are those who believe that this decision has been taken in haste. Now Ashwin has “X-rayed” this entire debate on his YouTube channel. And one of his lines has caught everyone’s attention “I don’t want Shubman Gill…” Ashwin’s concern and advice (The ‘Future Leader’ Logic) Ashwin said in very clear words that this decision of the selectors has been taken “keeping in mind the future” (Futuristic Call). According to him, making Gill the vice-captain does not just mean giving a badge, but it is the management’s way of telling him that “Son, you are at the top of our scheme. Yes.”But what Ashwin emphasized is worth noting. He says, “I don’t want Shubman Gill to make the kind of mistakes or come under the pressure that often forces young players to change their natural game.” Ashwin wants this ‘protection’ to give Gill freedom and not become a burden. Vice-captaincy = ‘no drop’ card? Ashwin also answered the question that every cricket lover is asking “If Gill flops, will he be dropped?” Ashwin explained that there are a lot of contenders in the team. Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer are all in line. But by giving him the vice-captaincy, the management has made it clear that Kigil’s place is confirmed. He said, “When you choose the vice-captain, you give him a security blanket. Now Sanju Samson or anyone else may have to sit out, but Gill will play because he is part of the leadership group.” This may sound a bit bitter to Sanju’s fans, but according to Ashwin, the bitter truth of cricket is that some tough decisions have to be taken to bring “stability”. Sharma’?Ashwin admitted that an attempt is being made to make Gill follow the footsteps of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. If Rohit is not there in future, then Gill will be the face who will lead the team. Therefore, it is important to prepare him from now on. So friends, Ashwin Anna has stamped that Gill is the “long race horse”. Now Gill just has to answer these expectations with the bat.
