India captain Shubman Gill praises Abhishek Sharma and Ruturaj Gaikwad highly after their magnificent win against Zimbabwe in the second T20I on Sunday (July 7). Gill shares his satisfaction after winning the match as they lost the first match by 13 runs.
India thrashed Zimbabwe by 100 runs on Sunday (7th July). Abhishek Sharma's sensational hundred, Ruturaj Gaikwad’s outstanding innings and a late blitz from Rinku Singh helped India post a mammoth 234 on the board. In reply, Mukesh Kumar and Avesh Khan both shared 3 wickets each to rip through Zimbabwe's batting lineup.
Abhishek scored 100 runs from 47 balls with 7 fours and 8 sixes. On the other hand, Gaikwad scored 77 runs from 47 balls with 11 fours and a six.
"Very happy, great to be back on the winning note back again. With the way Abhishek and Rutu batted, it was not easy especially in the powerplay, with the ball moving around but Abhi and Rutu built the innings brilliantly. Yesterday, it was more about not being able to handle the pressure, it's a young side and many of them are new to international exposure," Gill said.
"It was actually good to have pressure in the first game and we knew what to expect coming into this game. We have got three matches to go and we are looking forward to them. It's always good to have more options rather than not having options," he added.
