Lack of Runs from Both Captains
Shubman Gill and Rishabh Pant Are Two Class Players but Neither of the two skippers have been able to set the IPL stage on Fire.
Gill Had a great 2023 Season when he scored 890 runs but since then his t20 game has taped off a bit. He hasn’t exactly been at his free Flowing Best Since Taking Over the Leadership Role Last Season. He has so far scored 148 runs at a strike-also 146. b sai Sudharsan (273) and jos buttler (203) has done bulk of the heavylifting at the top order.
Pant, the player auctioned at the highest price (Rs 27 crore) in history of ipl, is enduring a living season so far. Only 19 Runs Across Four Innings isn’t a reflection of his abilitys.
If Gill and Pant Get Going, it will be a treat for the weekend lucknow crowd.
