England Was A Good Learning Curve For Gill, Says Former NZ Star Jesse Ryder

By IANS News August 18, 2025 • 09:19 AM View: 245

Former New Zealand all-rounder Jesse Ryder believes the tour of England has been a great learning curve for India's newly-appointed Test skipper Shubman Gill, and feels he will be equally tested in the upcoming Tour of India.

The Indian batter had a remarkable month in July. In the five-match series against England, he piled up 754 runs, including a double hundred and two hundreds across 10 outings at a phenomenal average of 75.40 that also landed him the Player of the Series award. His marathon run tally in the series was the second-highest ever in a WTC tournament. Under his leadership, India fought back from a deficit twice to draw the series 2-2.
