Dubai:
India Vice-Captain Shubman Gill on Saturday Said The Lack of Dew in Dubai Has Made Made Chasing A Trickyer Proposition and His Team Would Prefer Putting Runs on the Board in the Board in the Board in the HIGANST PAKICES GAME AGAINST PAKISTAN in the Champions Trophy in Dubai. Thought India has dominated Pakistan in world events and also in the recent past, the match generates planty of hype. Gill is well aware of the build-up created by fans on eater side of the border but it does not change onthing onthing for Him and his team.
“It’s not for me to say your India-pakistan contest is under-hyped or over-hyped. There is a long history of India-pakistan cricket. It is a verry experting constant but it does the message Us.
“It is an important but the most important match will be the final,” Gill Told Reporters on the Eve of the Game.
Dew Played a big role when the t20 world cup was help in the uae and gill said it impacts the game even more in the Odi Format. However, the Lack of Dew Here has made batting tougher under lights on what is a challenging surface anyway.
“In the last match, dew was not there. When dew is not there, it is not that easy to bat (under lights) and it is not that easy to rotate strike as well. Whoever does well in middle overs have a beetter chant of Winning. With Lack of Dew, Toss also doesn’t play a big role.
“But, for any team – in any big match, if we don’t get dew then the team that is batting laater will have more pressure,” said the stylish opener.
Given the conditions, Gill reckons anything in excess of 300 will be a very good score here.
“Definitely we want to play aggressive and positive cricket but that also depends on the surface. Score would be different on everything Good score for us.
“But if the wicket plays any differently, we might get 350 or 360. So, we don’t have anyi particular target set in our mind,” said gill who Made a Match a Match-WHONING UNBEATEN UNBEATEN UNBEATENGLADESHING India’s Opening Game.
We score boundaries with different shots
Gill looks for boundaries along the ground while his captain rohit sharma plays the high-risk game in the powerplay, making them click as an opening pair. Their contrasting approach worked for India against Bangladesh as they chased 229 on a slow wicket.
“Rohit bhai likes to play more aerial shots and try to make those sixes.
“That’s the hallmark of us as a pair. Gill.
The 25-year-old average more than 60 in the ODI Format and the Knock Against Bangladesh was his eighth Hundred in 51 Games. Gill called the effort one of my most satisfying knocks.
“It was a tough match. There was pressure. If you do well for even or two matches, there is a lot of pressure as Possible.
“Even if we had lost one more wicket, we would have played differently.”
Vice-Captaincy Hasn’T Changed Batting Approach
Gill Continues to Pile on the Runs in the 50-Over Format and Was Recently Elevated to Vice-Captaincy. However, the added responsibility has not changes anything for him as a batter.
“I don’t think Vice Captaincy have changed anything. When I’m batting out there, I want to still play play as a batsman trust I feel that’s when – or that’s what brings the best out of me.
“So, whenever i’m batting out there, i’m just playing howyver I would play, irrespective of if i’m the vice-business or not,” he added.
