London: The Indian team got a chance to spend some time with the former players at a charity event on Tuesday night, where they tasted the growing discussion around them after the victory in Edgbaston. The event praised stars like Sachin Tendulkar, Ravi Shastri, Bryan Lara, Ashish Nehra, Chris Gayle and Kevin Peterson on the Indian team’s turnaround in the series. For most of the evening, Yuvraj Singh, who has been one of the early masters of Shubman Gill, emphasized the role of chief selector Ajit Aggarkar and head coach Gautam Gambhir for promising performance by Indian players. “Agkar and Gautam do not get enough credit when the team does well. They are criticized for losing the team. Since Agkar has come as the chief selector, India has played the ODI World Cup final, won the T20 World Cup, won the Champions Trophy and now he has made history in Edgbaston. They are both doing great things, “Yuvraj said at a Gala dinner organized to raise funds for the treatment of cancer through Euveken Foundation. Yuvraj also said that Gill and Rishabh Pant are doing a lot of work with both teams. He has seen Gill for a very young age.” I have seen Gill’s growth. He was always the most difficult worker in a team. He has taken the responsibility of Test Captain Head and is the perfect man for the job.
I must say that Rishabh has been fantastic because he is back from the accident and is now part of the leadership group, ”he said.Kohli says age is holdingVirat Kohli reached after leaving the venue of the Indian team. He clearly revealed how he was rapidly increasing and this inspired him to call his career. “I have my beard dye every other day. Once you start happening, you know it is time,” he smiled. “It was very good to see the Indian team winning the Edgbaston Test. Nothing is doing well in Test cricket.” Shastri credited Kohli for India’s aggressive attitude in the ongoing test series. “If this youth team is playing cricket that we are watching, it is due to Virat. It has been the best ambassador for Test cricket in the last decade. That is why India is working hard in Test cricket,” Shastri said.
