Shubman Gill sudden dance moves in front of motionless Virat Kohli creates stir

Shubman Gill also elaborates about batting at number three position during West Indies tour

It is very rare that Virat Kohli gets overshadowed, but Shubman Gill managed to do that in the ongoing first Test against West Indies by breaking into dance. With India in a commanding position after dismissing nine Windies batters, Gill, standing at forward short-leg position seemed in a jolly mood and showed off his uber-cool dance moves. Kohli, who often is the first one to shake a leg to an upbeat song was standing motionless watching Gill swaying to the Caribbean beat.

Not only off the field, but the Gujarat Titans opener made headlines on the field too, by grabbing a one-handed stunner to send Warrican packing. Speaking about day one, India completely dominated the day’s play with bat and ball in hand.

Ravichandran Ashwin’s five-wicket haul helped India bundle out hosts for just 150. With bat in hand, Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal got India off to a flier by putting on an 80-run stand.

Shubman Gill: Gill breaks silence on batting at number three says management asked him

Speaking about Gill, there was a lot of debate about the position he will bat in despite scoring a sublime maiden Test hundred against Australia while opening the batting. While Jaiswal edged him ahead the opener in the first Test against West Indies, Gill said the management had asked him where he wanted to bat.

“In India A matches, I batted a lot at No. 3 and 4. They asked me where I wanted to bat in the series, and I said I wanted to bat at No.3, and I think it’s a good position for me that is where I wanna consolidate. It is always an advantage to play against the new ball. I have that advantage while opening the batting. Batting at number three is not very different from opening. You probably get a little more break in between innings,” Gill told the host broadcaster.

This will be the first time Gill will be playing at number three position in the absence of Cheteshwar Pujara. The youngster says he wants to make the most of the opportunity during the Caribbean tour.
