The right-hander had a poor outing in the first Test, scoring 16 and 8 across the innings during India’s massive 165-run win over Sri Lanka in Galle. Now, he is aiming for a strong comeback in Colombo. Amid this, Sri Lanka Cricket official provides pitch details in advance ahead of IND vs SL 2nd Test.
Shubman Gill wasn't afraid of taking the risk during the net session. Several of his shots went high into the stands, while teammates and support staff repeatedly reminded him to keep watching the ball. But the skipper continued trying wild shots in Colombo.
Shubman Gill targets Sri Lanka’s spin attack
Gill sometimes went deep into his crease before playing his shots against India’s left-arm spinners. But he continued his attacking approach and hit several balls for big runs against Saransh Jain. The captain said that he is ready to take on the Sri Lankan spinners in the second Test at Colombo.
He stepped out on the 28th ball he faced but could not make the most of it. Soon after, he attempted an early sweep and misjudged the length, leading to his dismissal. Still, the overall plan was clear. Gill wants to stay positive and attack when the opportunity comes. Interestingly, the Indian wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant is batting alongside the captain at the nets.

Bahutule said, as quoted by the Times of India, “With Gill, the flow of runs will always be there. This is just his way of adapting and finding the best methods to play, defend, and, more importantly, adapt. So, he has his own methods of adapting and is sticking to that.”
Notably, Kuldeep Yadav and KL Rahul missed India’s practice session in Colombo on Friday. In Kuldeep’s absence, Saransh Jain bowled a long spell in the nets. His performance has now increased talks about his possible selection for the second Test, especially after Sri Lanka added more left-handed batters to their squad for the Colombo game.
