Ever since Shubman Gill took over as the captain of the Indian side, he has found all his batters scoring runs and dominating the longest format with sheer form. However, the Indian team has failed to find a batter to replace the legacy of the former Indian legend Virat Kohli.
The Indian captain, Shubman Gill, has thrown his weight behind young batter Sai Sudharsan. Speaking at the pre-match press conference, Gill had urged patience and perspective when it comes to his Gujarat Titans opening partner Sudharsan.
"I don’t really think he’s going through a lean patch. He got only one innings in the first match (Ahmedabad Test). In the Oval Test, he played a crucial knock of 40 on a wicket where the ball was swinging. The match before that, he scored a fifty in Manchester. Not everyone is going to score in every match. You have to give young players more opportunities as they’re still figuring out their game," Gill said.

However, having snubbed Karun Nair, the signal is belief in Sudharsan as a long-term investment at the top of the Indian batting order.
Sudharsan was seen working closely with Captain Gill in the nets
Sudharsan is known to have a close on-field rapport with Shubman Gill since the two players open for the Gujarat Titans in the IPL. He was picked for the Indian Test team after the player clinched the Orange Cap with 759 runs in the last IPL season.
Gill has been seen tailoring batting advice and even stepping in to practice alongside him during the throwdowns. This highlighted the chemistry between the two Indian players and also shed light on the captain's faith in the young cricketer.
