Shubman Gill Slams 2nd ODI Century, Makes Statement Of Intent Amid Selection Debate | Cricket News

[ad_1] Shubman Gill raced to his second ODI century on Sunday. In the third and final ODI between India and Sri Lanka at Greenfield International Stadium in Thiruvananthapuram, the right-handed batter got off to a slow start. He then accelerated his innings which also saw him hitting four consecutive fours to Lahiru Kumara in the sixth over. Shubman scored his fifty in 52 balls but took only 37 balls for the next 50 runs. It is worth noting that the player was given a nod ahead of Ishan Kishan -- who had scored a double century against Bangladesh last month -- and he grabbed it with both the hands. In the first game of the series against Sri Lanka, Gill had scored 70 runs.Gill fell for 116 runs off 97 balls on the bowling of Kasun Rajitha. The right-arm Sri Lanka pacer bowled a slower ba...

3rd ODI: India Might Look At Bowling Options In Dead Rubber Against Sri Lanka | Cricket News

[ad_1] A series clean sweep in sight, Indian team is unlikely to tinker with its batting line-up but skipper Rohit Sharma could be tempted to look at some of his bowling options during the final ODI against Sri Lanka on Sunday. Having already sealed the series with contrasting wins -- a comfortable one while defending in Guwahati and a hard-fought one while chasing in Kolkata -- Rohit's men wouldn't mind a bit more clinical effort against the island nation in last match of the tour. A 3-0 series win before taking on a better-quality opposition in New Zealand in less than 72 hours time will keep the team in good stead.Workload management has been the buzz word in Indian cricket over the past couple of years and while it has advantages, there has been distinct pitfalls with players not fin...
