Indian batting star Shubman Gill shared a social media post with Indian skipper Rohit Sharma amid rift rumours. The batter is currently travelling with the Indian squad in the USA and West Indies for the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. While Gill wasn’t a part of the regular Indian squad, he was included in the team as a travelling reserve along with Rinku Singh, Khaleel Ahmed and Avesh Khan.
Recently, rumours of rift between Gill and Sharma started to circulate in the media claiming that the former unfollowed the seasoned Indian opener on his Instagram. Not only this but reports claimed that the 24-year-old returned home midway through the World Cup due to disciplinary issues. However, Indian coach Vikram Rathour quashed the rumours and said that they were untrue.
Shubman Gill learns ‘art of discipline’ from Rohit Sharma
The young dynamic batter, who leads Gujarat Titans in the Indian Premier League, took an indirect dig at the rumours by posting a picture with Rohit Sharma on Instagram. On his Instagram, Gill posted a picture with Sharma and his daughter, Samaira, stating that they have been learning ‘discipline’ from the Indian skipper.
Gill captioned the picture, “Sammy and I learning the art of discipline from Rohit Sharma’. Talking about the Indian squad, the Men in Blue made it to the Super 8 stage of the T20 World Cup 2024. Their last group-stage clash against Canada in the marquee tournament was abandoned due to the weather conditions in Florida.
