Shubman Gill, the Indian cricketer, acknowledges that his Test career has not yet met expectations and is focusing on enhancing his defense against spinners ahead of the upcoming season, which features 10 Test matches. After a strong performance with nearly 500 runs in the home series against England, he is looking to build on that during the two-match series against Bangladesh starting September 19, where he will face experienced spinners like Shakib al Hasan. Gill has emphasized the importance of being able to defend well on turning tracks to score effectively. He recognizes that the rise of T20 cricket may have affected players' defensive techniques but hopes to correct this. Despite his success in white-ball cricket, he aims to turn around his Test performance, stating, 'In Test cricket, my performance has not matched my expectations so far.' Additionally, he attributes his growth as a cricketer to his captaincy experiences, highlighting the importance of understanding teammates' strengths and weaknesses.
