Kevin Pietersen Prediction About Shubman Gill: Indian captain Shubman Gill scored 269 runs in the second Test of the series being played against England in Birmingham with the help of 30 fours and 3 sixes. Gill’s double century was a befitting reply to critics who trolled him for poor records abroad.

Meanwhile, a post of former England batsman Kevin Pietersen is becoming increasingly viral, in which he has talked about Gill. This post of Peterson is about a year old, in which he has said to give time to Gill. Apart from this, he also gave an example of South African veteran all -rounder Jack Kallis.

What did Kevin Pietersen say?

Peterson posted a post on X and wrote that give Gill a little time because the average of Kallis was also bad in the first 10 Tests. Then later Kallis became one of the legendary players. Peterson himself reminded the fans.

Peterson wrote, “Kallis had an average of 22 in the first 10 Tests and then became one of the veteran players of the game. Give Shubman a little time to find.”

Gill broke several records with double century

Gill scored 269 runs. This was the biggest private score for any Indian captain in Test cricket history. Earlier this record was recorded after Virat Kohli, who scored 254 runs in the Test against South Africa in 2019.

In the Test played on foreign soil, it was the third largest private score made through the Indian batsman. The record for the biggest private score is recorded in the name of Virender Sehwag (309 runs). In the list, Rahul Dravid is second with a score of 270 runs.
