1st Test: Don’t Want To Win In 2-3 Days, Plan Is To Play Hard, Grinding Cricket, Says Gill
Narendra Modi Stadium: With India opening its home Test season, skipper Shubman Gill said his team is focused on playing ‘hard, grinding cricket’ rather than chasing quick wins coming in two-three days.
The ongoing series against the West Indies, currently underway at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, is also Gill’s first assignment as India’s Test captain at home in the new World Test Championship cycle.
“The plan is simple—hard, grinding cricket. We don’t want to win in 2–3 days. We know we have the best four spinners—Kuldeep, Jadeja, Axar and Washi. Any team coming to India knows two challenges: spin and reverse swing. We’ll test opposition in both areas, but our focus is good cricket. We talk more about winning every series than WTC. But yes, if such a strong team doesn’t qualify, it would be disappointing,” said Gill on JioHotstar.
