Devang Gandhi gave a big statement
Before the Birmingham Test match against England, Devang Gandhi said, as quoted by the Times of India – Both Rahul and Gill are confident about their batting figures. When we were selectors, Rahul Dravid played Gill in the middle order on ‘A’ tours and he played one of his best first-class innings in the middle order. He probably feels more secure about his place now. Now he must be enjoying leading the batting order.
Well, now it will be interesting to see how the Indian batsmen are going to perform in the second Test match to be played at Edgbaston ground in Birmingham. Although, five centuries were seen from Team India in the Leeds Test match, but even after such performance, Team India had to face defeat.
On the other hand, a big news related to the Indian camp is coming out before the Birmingham Test match.
