Prasidh Krishna heaps praises on Shubman Gill

Gujarat Titans pacer Prasidh Krishna has heaped praises on team skipper Shubman Gill highlighting his approachable nature saying he is open to conversations whenever teammates seek guidance. This comes at a time when Gujarat Titans is preparing for the much awaited Indian Premier League (IPL) clash against Royal Challengers Bangalore on April 2.

“There is a lot of planning that goes in before we get into the field. But, having someone like (Shubman) Gill, is that you could go up to him and ask him, what do you think is the better line and length to bowl on this pitch, what do you think. It is nice to have Gill and every other experienced player, like Jos (Buttler), KG (Kagiso Rabada), and even Ishant Sharma coming in last year. Shubman is a guy I have known for quite some time, and it is really easy for any of us to go and approach him and get his input,” Prasidh Krishna told media.
