Dinesh Karthik said that the Test skipper, Shubman Gill, was not the actual choice of the England head coach, Brendon McCullum, and he wanted the award to be given to another India star.
Meanwhile, Dinesh Karthik has revealed that McCullum had initially picked Gill to win the award and informed the decision to Michael Atherton, who was doing the post-match presentation.
“If the match had gotten over yesterday (Day 4), Shubman Gill was the man of the series. Brendon McCullum had said Shubman Gill. And obviously, Atherton [Mike Atherton] was the one doing the presentation. So, he had all the questions ready. Everything was for Shubman Gill," he said on Cricbuzz.

“At the start of the series, I actually said, in Australia, he bowled better with the old ball than with the new ball. But Mohammed Siraj has come out here to England. And when he has been the head of the pack, which means everybody was speaking about how Jasprit Bumrah is important.
