Aggression not for everyone: Shubman Gill needs his own voice, not mimic Virat Kohli

It would not be far-fetched to suggest that Shubman Gill may be trying to mimic certain aspects of Virat Kohli. Since being appointed Test skipper, he has moved to the No. 4 slot where, notably, some of his best knocks in the ongoing England series have have been moments when Gill has shown glimpses of Kohli-esque behaviour. One such instance was his celebration at Edgbaston the roar, the celebration strikingly similar to Kohli's century celebration at the same venue in This may be a hot take, but the only reason to suggest Gill isn't actively trying to replicate Kohli is that his game might be suffering as a result. Yes, it's entertaining to be the one dishing it out, but when you're on the receiving end of verbal jabs, it's a different game altogether. That's what made Kohli so great: he thrived in the fire. But that style isn't for everyone, and perhaps not for his first Test as captain, Gill had stated that he didn't want to copy anyone's style, instead focusing on being his own man. But is that truly the case?Gill has certainly been more confrontational, a shift from the composed figure we've seen over most of his career. This change should serve as a wake-up call. Opposition players, as Ben Stokes demonstrated on the final day at Lord's, are more than happy to return the the great Virender Sehwag, one of India's finest batters, initially struggled with trying to model himself after Sachin Tendulkar. But once he embraced his own identity, he flourished. The parallels for Gill are clear — and perhaps HOSTILE TACTICS BACKFIRED? Former cricketers Sanjay Manjrekar and Mohammad Kaif, in hindsight, both suggested that Gill's approach — especially his verbal duel with Zak Crawley on Day 3 — might have worked against him.'Gill suddenly looking tentative last evening had a lot to do with the hostility he got at the crease from England. Virat performed better, the angrier he got. Dhoni is the exact opposite. Gill must decide what gets the best out of him as a batter — calmness or anger,' Manjrekar posted on X.'Shubman Gill's fight with Zak Crawley charged England. After Edgbaston, there were questions about their batting, bowling and captaincy. But that incident fired up Stokes, and he bowled an inspiring spell. It is wise to stick to the attitude that works for you. Gill will learn this the hard way,' Kaif echoed.'What would have fired him up in this game was the Indian team targeting Zak Crawley in that one over,' Broad said on Sky Sports Cricket. 'It was great fun, brilliant to watch, but he wouldn't have liked the fact that one of his players was out there alone, with just Ben Duckett for company, and the team going at him'. advertisementGill however, defended himself and suggested that those few minutes of play cannot determine an entire Test match. Instead he pointed out other moments that could have turned the result in their favour. 'No, five minutes can't define five days of hard work. If you ask me about key moments, that wouldn't even be in my top five. For us, Rishabh's run-out was more crucial. At one point, we felt we could get a 50–100 run lead, which would've been massive on Day 5 when batting gets tough. That was a big turning point," Gill said at the post-match press conference. Only time will tell if Gill can carve out his own identity as a Test captain. Since taking over, he has looked eager to take England head-on a trait that could either define or derail this early chapter of his two Tests still to play, Gill has the chance to quiet his critics, including me. A series win would put many of these concerns to rest. One thing, however, is clear: this Indian Test team is full of fighters. The challenge for Gill is not to become someone else, but to channel that fight in a way that stays true to who he really is.- EndsTune InMust Watch

The 76-year-old monarch engaged in a friendly cricketing discussion with the Indian squad, a meeting Gill later described as 'amazing.' Joining the teams were Indian High Commissioner to the UK Vikram Doraiswami, Deputy High Commissioner Sujit Ghosh, BCCI Vice-President Rajiv Shukla, and Secretary Devajit Saikia.

He was very kind and generous, and we had some excellent conversations.' Recalling the dramatic finish in the third Test, where Siraj was bowled as the ball sat defensively off his bat, Gill added: 'The King noted how unlucky our last batters were, with the ball ending up on the stumps. He asked us, 'How did you feel after that?' We told him it was an unfortunate match but that we're hopeful for better luck in the upcoming games.' Gill also praised the unwavering support from the Indian community in the UK: 'We're fortunate to receive strong backing wherever we play. At first, the crowd at Lord's seemed more England-leaning, but over the last few days, the support for us was overwhelming.' He lauded the quality of Test cricket on display, saying: 'Both teams showed passion and pride, giving everything mentally and physically.

This was our first time meeting him, he was very friendly and asked about our travel.' Women's head coach Amol Muzumdar added, 'It was a humbling moment at the Royal House. We traveled all the way from Southampton, and it was definitely worth it.' The event was hosted by the British Asian Trust, founded by Charles when he was Prince of Wales to address poverty and inequality in South Asia. Hitan Mehta, Executive Director, remarked on the trust's growth: 'It began with a cricket match between India and Pakistan in 2007 organized by His Majesty, and now reaches 13 million people across the region.' Following the visit, the men's team departed for Manchester ahead of the fourth Test, while the women's squad returned to Southampton to prepare for their ODI clash with England, scheduled after their narrow 3-2 T20I series win.

'They obviously like the food here': Michael Vaughan takes witty dig at Team India after Lord's heartbreak

Team India's loss at Lord's has brought former England captain Michael Vaughan to the scene. Being a long-time India critic, Vaughan did not miss the chance to troll Team India. read more Team India fought hard but could not evade defeat on Day 5 at Lord's. Ravindra Jadeja's gritty knock that took India closer to the 193-run target tested the patience of England but the resistance finally ceased as he ran out of partners. Consequently, India lost the 3rd Test by 22 runs. England on the other hand, regained a crucial lead in the series. Also Read | How much did the Day 3 spat between Gill and Crawley hurt India at Lord's? STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Michael Vaughan takes a cheeky dig at Team India The result at Lord's has brought former England captain Michael Vaughan to the forefront once again. Vaughan, who is a longtime critic of Team India, did not let the golden opportunity to take a swipe at the team slip. Presenting his satire, Vaughan joked that Indian players fancied the food here at Lord's and wanted to get enough of it, thus did not spend much time in the middle, rather got dismissed cheaply. 'They obviously like the food here. The thing about the lunches is that they can have them if they're obviously dismissed. That's just (loss of) concentration. You've played enough cricket to understand that. The more you think about batting differently towards the end of a session, the more you're probably going to get out. You've just got to naturally play. Just naturally play." Vaughan said While speaking with Dinesh Karthik at a Cricbuzz show On a serious note, the ex-England skipper stated that India's loss highlights the inexperience of the side. 'That's just a mentality thing that this team has to get better at. I guess the inexperience of the group; They're an inexperienced group.' It was the collapse that led to India's eventual debacle in both 1st and 3rd Test, it is a cause of concern for India captain Shubman Gill, according to Vaughan. 'Gill will be slightly concerned about that collapse, the first innings collapse down the back end, the little collapse last night and then another three quick wickets this morning. You don't win many Test matches when you lose so many wickets in clusters. That's something that India can't afford in the last two games.'
