Gill on the other hand has played 11 Test innings scoring 263 runs at an average of 26.30. He has two half-centuries to name and has failed to convert his starts into big scores.  Rahul is likely to pip Gill for the opening slot having a solid experience at home. Another factor that gives Rahul the edge is the backing from the team management as the vice-captain of the Test side.
