NEW DELHI: Shubman Gill was all smiles after Gujarat Titans cruised to a comfortable seven-wicket win over Lucknow Super Giants at the Ekana Cricket Stadium on Sunday. The GT skipper credited his bowlers for setting up the victory with a disciplined performance. “The way we bowled in the powerplay was very impressive.
And I think how we kept the pressure in the middle overs was also tremendous by the bowlers. Makes my life very easy, you know,” Gill said, praising the collective effort. He reserved special praise for Rashid Khan, highlighting his impact in crucial phases.
“The way he's bowling at the moment, Rashid, getting us back in the game every time, you know, another bowler is under pressure. So makes my life very easy. Gets the wicket, gets the dot balls, and it's very hard to hit him,” he added.
Gill also spoke about the importance of sticking to basics, particularly in the powerplay. “I think in the first six overs, it's all about, it's very difficult to do the simple things because you might sometimes get much ahead in the game. So it's important to come back and realise, you know, what are the simple things that I need to do right now in the moment,” he noted.
