IND vs END Test: Who can get the better of high-flying Shubman Gill at Lord’s? Stuart Broad, Jos Buttler pick | Cricket News

Stuart Broad and Jos Buttler have picked an England bowler who they consider can bother India captain Shubman Gill in the third Test at Lord’s, beginning Thursday.Gill has amassed 585 runs in 4 innings, together with three centuries, and the England bowlers have seemed clueless whereas bowling to him.

Speaking on For the Love of Cricket, his new podcast with Jos Buttler, Stuart Broad stated: “Shubman Gill, 269. Honestly, it looked like he could have broken Lara’s record.“He was simply cruising. It didn’t seem like something may bother him. There’s all the time a bit of nervousness whenever you’re put into bat — that you could possibly be 30 for 3 and actually beneath the pump — however England had been okay that first morning.“He didn’t do anything badly. Maybe a bit unlucky. Chris Woakes — you saw he got quite frustrated — two or three umpire’s calls could have gone England’s way, but didn’t.“But as soon as Gill obtained in, goodness me — that transfer to No. 4! He spent most of his profession to date opening the batting, averaging round 30. Since Virat Kohli retired, he’s moved to quantity 4 and gone on to attain 100, an enormous double, an enormous 150 — simply superior.“It looks like he’s got no weaknesses at all. You know, when he was young, when I bowled to him in India, I always felt that if I could get the right line to nip back through the gate, that was a really good option. But now, he looks like he’s really covering that line, and LBW doesn’t seem to be in play much anymore.”Buttler agreed with Broad on Gill’s kind however talked about a chink in the India captain’s armour that England may exploit in the third Test.“The sort of hunger and determination from Gill — to score a massive double and then come out again in the second innings and make another big score — it’s been impressive. And obviously, becoming captain, there was a lot of talk about his record. He’s a better player than what his record was showing, wasn’t he? And he’s certainly turned that around very quickly,” stated Buttler.“You mentioned the move to number four — coming in when the ball is a little bit older, which maybe makes it a little bit easier and hides any technical deficiencies — but to be honest, he doesn’t look like he’s got any at the moment.“I believe the ball that nips again and tries to get him bowled remains to be an possibility. Obviously, Jofra Archer will probably be coming again into the facet at Lord’s, I think about — not that I’m choosing the workforce — however he did get Shubman bowled in the IPL, nipping one again via the gate.“But other than that, he’s a very correct player. India produce a lot of technically very correct players.”
