Delhi: Shubman Gill has to work hard under the captaincy of Gujarat Titans (GT). In such a situation, veteran batsman David Miller said that the 24-year-old player still needs to learn a lot for this role. The South African player also called Gill a good leader.

For your information, let us tell you that under the captaincy of Gill, Gujarat Titans team is at ninth position in the points table and their hopes of reaching the play-offs are also over. Under the leadership of Hardik Pandya, they were champions in GT 2022 and were also runners-up last year.

34-year-old David Miller said, “Shubman is an extraordinary player, as we all know. He is still young and has a lot to learn, but I think he is adjusting to captaincy really well.

Miller also made a big statement about veteran fast bowler Mohammed Shami, who is emerging after ankle surgery, that he is missing a pacer in the power play. “Shami, obviously, was really exceptional in the power play, so we feel like we are missing him in the power play, because he took wickets and kept the economy rate low,” he said.
