'I Respect Selectors’ Decision': Shubman Gill's Straightforward Response On T20 World Cup Snub
T20 World Cup: India’s Test and ODI skipper Shubman Gill has finally opened up on his T20 World Cup snub and said that he respected the selectors’ decision and believes that ‘nobody can take away what’s written in destiny.’
Gill, who served as vice-captain of the T20I team since Gautam Gambhir's appointment as head coach, was excluded from India’s 15-member squad for the 20-over World Cup, scheduled to begin from February 7, with Axar Patel being named Suryakumar Yadav’s deputy.
“It is my belief that I am right where I am supposed to be in my life. Whatever is written in my destiny, nobody can take that away from me. As a player, I want to play in World Cups and win games for my team. But having said that, I respect the selectors’ decision. I wish the T20 team all the very best. I hope they win the World Cup,” Gill said, addressing the media in a pre-match press conference ahead of the first ODI against New Zealand here at the BCA (Kotambi) Stadium.
