IND Vs AUS, Shubman Gill: The third Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia at Gabba, Brisbane was a draw. In this match, Indian team’s young batsman Shubman Gill was caught out by Mitchell Marsh on the ball of Mitchell Starc after scoring just 1 run in the first innings. Shubman Gill, who was ruled out of the Perth Test due to injury, played innings of 31 and 28 runs respectively in both the innings of the Adelaide Test.

gill flop on foreign soil

Actually, Gill has to struggle to give his best performance in Test cricket on foreign soil. So far he has scored more than fifty runs only three times in 25 Test innings on foreign soil. On foreign soil, Gill has scored 682 runs in 25 innings at an average of 29.65. Which includes 2 half-centuries and 1 century. Whereas Gill has scored 1177 runs in 31 Test innings in India at an average of 42.04. What this means is that Gill will struggle to play on foreign soil, it is clear. Therefore, Gill may be out of the team in the fourth Melbourne Test against Australia.
