IND vs. Eng 3rd Test: Shubman Gill once again violates the ICC code of conduct; It avoids cleverness. Cricket news
Shubman Gill avoided troublesome due to trouble due to trouble with the International Cricket Council (ICC) during the third Test at Lord’s rules after a small but noticeable violation of clothing rules. Just before the game began, during the national anthem, the Indian captain was seen wearing a red vest under his white jersey. According to Article 19.44 of ICC’s clothing and equipment code, for Test matches, any visible undergarment under the shirt should be white. Colorful vest or undersherts are not allowed to look strictly. Luckily for Gill, he quickly realized the issue. As the teams prepared for the first session, they gave different buttons to their shirts to cover the red vest – effectively solved the violation before the game started. The ICC closely monitors such details, and the player appears to also face punishment for minor violations, especially when the color appears to the naked eye.

During the first Test in Headingly, Gill was seen wearing black socks, which also do not meet the standards of ICC clothing for Test matches. However, he corrected the mistake by switching to white socks the next day, again to avoid any disciplinary action. Gill’s awareness and quick action helped them dodge a possible approval from the ICC on both occasions. While they can look like minor overs -of, rules are seriously applied, especially in the traditional format of the game
