IND vs AUS: India's T20I vice captain Shubman Gill had a flying start to the ongoing five-match T20I series against Australia, where he scored a gritty knock of 37 runs, but then rain played a spoilsport in Canberra. And then in the next two innings, as the visitors tried to make a comeback to level this series, Gill scored 20 runs in Melbourne and 15 in Hobart.

Even if he doesn't perform well in the next few innings, it might not be problematic for him, but since his presence in the playing XI means that a talented player like Yashasvi Jaiswal has to sit out, that has put pressure on Gill.

Gill is a brilliant player and has shown earlier as well that he can be a brilliant all-format player, just like Jaiswal. He will try to bounce back in the 4th T20I, which will be held in Carrara Oval.
