India continued their dominance against Zimbabwe, clinching the fourth T20I by 10 wickets. While the credit goes to the entire team, a special mention goes to the young Yashasvi Jaiswal, who stole the show with a blistering knock of 93 runs Came to bat along, skipper Shubhman Gill scored 58 runs.
However, fans do not appreciate Gill’s innings, instead calling him a selfish player.
The incident occurred during the match, with India needing just 23 runs for victory and Jaiswal batting 83. Fans were anticipating a well-deserved century for the youngster. But social media erupted when Gill changed his gears and won the game for India. This left Jasiwal short of runs to complete his century.
Comparison with the Hardik Pandya incident
This incident triggered comparisons to Hardik Pandya’s similar act against the West Indies in 2023, where he didn’t allow Tilak Verma to reach fifty, and hit the winning six. Fans weren’t shy about expressing their disappointment with Gill, labelling him “selfish” and questioning his sportsmanship.
Securing the opening spot?
Meanwhile, Jaiswal’s phenomenal knock has solidified his position as a contender for India’s T20 opening slot, especially considering Rohit Sharma’s recent retirement from the format.
