IND vs AUS: Dinesh Karthik worries about Shubman Gill’s major technical flaw

Former India keeper-batsman Dinesh Karthik feels that Shubman Gill has a major technical flaw in his batting. Commenting on Shubman’s dismal form away from home, Karthik said Gill was confused about his approach to batting in India compared to batting in overseas conditions. Since his heroic outing with Gabba in 2021, where he scored 91 runs, Gill’s batting form at home and away has been a stark contrast. At home, Gill has scored 1177 runs in 31 innings, his away returns are significantly lower – 424 runs in 20 innings.

Dinesh Karthik believes Shubman Gill getting on the front foot and pushing hard on the ball caused his fall outside off and resulted in the terrible average of 22.31 – since the Gabba Test match in 2021 Speaking on Cricbuzz, the former Royal Challengers Bangalore player said that Shubman had to find a way to balance his methods when playing in conditions like South Africa, Australia and. England.

“I think Shubman Gill definitely has a slight technical error, which is pushing the ball. When you play a lot of white-ball cricket, you tend to do that. Travis Head does that too, but what he found , that’s the method of doing that, and I think players like Shubman Gill are trapped in the way they bat in India and the way they bat away,” Dinesh Karthik said on.

“That is, the moment you see the ball being thrown by the bowler, your mind tells you that it is a full ball which you need to attack him. Batsmen who travel abroad in places like Australia, England and South Africa adapt in training when they see a fuller ball like that, especially against a new ball – A) they play with slightly soft, or B) they try to concentrate on the closer game where Shubman Gill plays as if he was playing in India, where he sees the release, goes for the ball with hard hands Now in Australia, sometimes, in places like the Gabba, play some. front foot is a bit difficult so at the start of the innings you have to say that, I have to do it go,” Karthik pointed out Shubman Gill’s critical flaw in his batting.

Karthik concluded by stating that Shubmam Gill has been around for a very long time and it was not acceptable for him to go out playing ordinary shots. Gill was dismissed while trying to flick a ball onto his front foot at the Gabba.

“For a No. 3 batsman who has been around for so long, Shubman Gill played a very, very ordinary shot, there are no minced words here. And let’s be honest here, that Indian batting, as a group, haven’t shot here for quite some time now, and with each passing inning, they are putting pressure on themselves,” concluded Karthik.
