Bad news for Shubman Gill, Indian captain may pay huge amount of money for...

India.com4 hours ago

In this collection of pictures we shall know the bad news for Shubman Gill, interestingly he could also pay a huge amount of money for that. Let's take a closer look.
On the first day of the Leeds Test against England (20 June), Indian captain Shubman Gill's brilliance was seen. Shubman scored a century in his first Test innings as captain. This was the sixth century of Shubman's Test career. When the game ended on the first day, Shubman Gill was not out after scoring 127 runs and vice-captain Rishabh Pant was not out after scoring 65 runs. The Indian team's score was also 359 runs for the loss of three wickets in the first innings.
This brilliant century of Shubman Gill is being discussed. Along with this, the Indian captain was also in the headlines on the first day of the match (20 June) due to another reason. Actually, on the first day of this match, Shubman came out to bat wearing black socks, which is being considered a violation of ICC rules.
Let us tell you that according to clause 19.45 of ICC's Clothing and Equipment Rules, players have to wear white, cream or light grey colored socks in Test cricket. But Shubman Gill came out wearing black colored socks. This rule came into effect from May 2023 after the recommendations of the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC).
Now it will depend on the match referee Richie Richardson what decision he takes. If the match referee believes that Shubman has deliberately committed a Level-1 offense, then the Indian captain can be fined, which can be from 0 to 50 percent. However, if the referee feels that Shubman Gill did this inadvertently or due to circumstances (eg- the white socks were wet), then he can escape the fine.
For ICC's Level-1 offence, players can be fined 0 to 50 percent and given demerit points. For Level-2 offence, players can be fined 50 to 100 percent and banned (eg. 1 Test or 2 ODIs). However, cases related to dress code rarely fall under Level-2 offence.
1. In 2016, Chris Gayle used a black bat in a Big Bash League (BBL) match, which was against the rules. Gayle was then fined 10 percent of his match fee, 2. In 2018, KL Rahul came wearing a helmet in a Test match against Afghanistan which was against ICC rules. In such a situation, he was fined 10 percent of his match fee, 3. Pakistani batsman Imam-ul-Haq came out with a logo on his bat in the match against England during the 2019 ODI World Cup, which was against ICC rules. Imam was fined 15 percent of his match fee, 4. Joe Root had put a Rainbow symbol on his jersey in the match against India in 2021, which was in support of the LGBTQ+ community. Due to this, he was fined 15 percent of his match fee.

1st Test: Gill hits career-best 147, Pant smashes 134 as India reach 454/7 against England

Leeds: Captain Shubman Gill's career-best 147 and vice-captain Rishabh Pant's astonishing 134 propelled India to 454/7 in 108.4 overs at lunch on day two of the first Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy Test at Headingley on Saturday. Resuming from 359/3, India had a session of two halves – 53/0 before the drinks break was taken. By then, Pant hit his seventh Test century and went past MS Dhoni (six) for the most Test centuries hit by an Indian wicketkeeper. The flamboyant Pant's third Test hundred in England, laced with magnificence and madness in stroke-play in equal measure, is a feat no other visiting keeper has achieved before. But after the drinks break, India lost four wickets, including both centurions Gill and Pant, for 42 runs, giving England a chance of bowling out India below 500. Gill got Day Two underway with a gorgeous extra cover drive off Chris Woakes for four before Pant pulled and steered Brydon Carse for boundaries, despite missing a hack down the ground off the pacer. The duo continued to trade in boundaries, as Pant went into the 90s with a falling scoop off Shoaib Bashir for four, before walloping him for six. Pant then stepped out to heave Bashir for a one-handed six over midwicket to bring up his enthralling century off 146 deliveries and celebrated with his signature somersault, a skill he picked up from undergoing gymnastics practice in his growing-up years. Pant then brought up 200 runs of his stand with Gill when he managed to clear long-off for six off Bashir before the partnership was ended by the off-spinner when the Indian captain holed out to deep square leg, as he fell for a classy 147. Pant's fun continued when he creamed Stokes for four, and slog-swept Bashir for six, before pulling off the England captain for another boundary. But from the other end, Karun Nair's comeback to the Test team after eight years lasted just four balls as he reached out to a wide ball off Stokes, and Ollie Pope at cover took a brilliant leaping catch to dismiss him for a duck. With some reverse swing on offer, Pant was troubled by inswingers from Josh Tongue, before shouldering arms to a sharp nip-backer from around the wicket and was trapped lbw right in front of the stumps. Soon after, Shardul Thakur slashed Stokes behind to wicketkeeper Jamie Smith at the stroke of lunch, leaving India's quest of making 600 in doubt. Brief scores: India 454/7 in 108.4 overs (Shubman Gill 147, Rishabh Pant 134; Ben Stokes 4-66, Josh Tongue 1-79) against England

IND vs ENG 1st Test: Nasser Hussain backs Ben Stokes' call to bowl first despite tough opening day

Former England captain Nasser Hussain defended Ben Stokes' decision to bowl first in the 1st Test against India at Headingley. Despite India's strong total of 471 in the first innings, Hussain believes the plan was right but didn't pay off. read more Former England captain Nasser Hussain has defended Ben Stokes' decision to bowl first in the opening Test against India at Headingley. Hussain said that even though the call didn't work out as planned, it was based on recent toss records at the venue, where teams have won bowling first in the last six matches. Nasser Hussain backs Ben Stokes England's bowlers struggled on Day 1 after Stokes opted to field, with India piling on the runs thanks to centuries from Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill and a solid opening show by KL Rahul. Despite the outcome, Hussain said that Stokes made a fair call at the toss. 'If evidence was required that it wasn't an easy decision for Ben Stokes at the toss, it came from India's new captain Shubman Gill who confirmed he was also going to bowl,' Hussain wrote in his column. 'Fifteen years ago, if you'd seen the blue sky and that pitch, of course you would have batted first, but recent history tells you Headingley is a bowl-first ground,' he added. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Hussain also explained that the pitch tends to get better for batting as the match progresses, saying that it further justifies Stokes' decision to bowl first. He said that England's bowlers didn't get their lines and lengths right on the opening day, which made it easier for Indian batters to score runs. 'To be fair, the ball did a bit in the morning session too, swinging much earlier than usual. It normally takes 12-15 overs for the lacquer to come off, but here it was swinging after half an hour. England just got their lines and their lengths wrong and India's batsmen could leave comfortably.' Hussain said the criticism of Stokes' decision to bowl first is a little unfair even though India finished Day 1 in a dominant position. 'By its end, India were well and truly in the ascendancy and of course the decision by Stokes eight hours earlier looked dubious - but recent history explains his reasoning." Rishabh Pant completed his century on Day 2 of the match. After Gill and Pant's dismissal, India suffered a mini-collapse and were bowled out for 471 just after lunch. It is still a pretty good total considering that India lost the toss and were asked to bat first. England will now look to score as many runs to give themselves a chance in the match.
