Pune, October 20
Opener Shubman Gill said that captain Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are laying the foundation for India’s successful chases in the World Cup. The 24-year-old said the team was intent on improving its chasing record.
“You can see how confident they (Virat and Rohit) are, the way they are scoring runs,” Gill said. “This is one of the things that was talked about, especially leading up to the World Cup, that we were not chasing those big totals well. I think it’s a great way to have that momentum with us in those big games that we’ll have moving forward,” he added.
With a battery of top-class pacers in Trent Boult, Matt Henry and Lockie Ferguson, and in-form spinner Mitchell Santner, New Zealand will make it tough for India to maintain their winning streak.
“When we bat first, we know which template to go with and we have made big scores regularly,” Gill said.
Santner, who tops the bowling charts with 11 wickets, said the first Powerplay with the ball will be crucial for them against India. “I think what we’ve done well through this tournament is being able to adapt to different conditions,” he said.
When Virat Kohli was on 97 and India needed just two runs to finish the match, Bangladesh’s left-arm spinner Nasum Ahmed bowled a delivery straying down the leg side. Umpire Richard Kettleborough decided not to give it a wide raising eyebrows among the spectators. In the post-match press conference, Gill was asked whether the decision surprised him.
