Shastri said it would be a surprise if Gill does not go places in a few years.\u201cI\u2019ll be disappointed if Gill doesn\u2019t go places. Languid, lazy elegance, and he\u2019s got a regal element of being regal out there when he\u2019s batting,\u201d Shastri told Wisden.\u201cIf he can learn with exposure and adapt to conditions, I think that\u2019s the one name I can see.<\/p>\n<p>WV Raman backs Shubman Gill to fire in England: &#8216;He needs the right support&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s matured a lot. The way he handles the media, the way he talks at press conferences, at tosses\u2014he\u2019s matured a lot.\u201cLet him be there for three years. Don\u2019t chop and change irrespective of what happens in the series. Stick with him for three years, and I think he will deliver for you,\u201d he added.Gill scored a sublime century on his captaincy debut for India in Headingley. Gill joined the elite list of Indians which includes Sunil Gavaskar, Virat Kohli, Vijay Hazare, and Dilip Vengsarkar to score a hundred on Test captaincy debut.Gill is the 23rd player to score a century in a debut innings as captain and the fourth-youngest among them, behind Herbie Taylor, Alastair Cook, and Steven Smith.<\/p>\n<p>Prasidh Krishna Press Conference: On Learning, Experience &amp; the Road Ahead<\/p>\n<p>India\u2019s right-arm seamer <a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/topic\/prasidh-krishna\" styleobj=\"[object Object]\" class=\"\" commonstate=\"[object Object]\" frmappuse=\"1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Prasidh Krishna<\/a> has also shared his thoughts on the newly appointed Test skipper, saying the young middle-order batter has created a \u201cvery good atmosphere\u201d in the dressing room.\u201cI think he did a pretty good job. All of us saw how he rotated the bowlers, made sure everybody had enough breaks, brought in people at the right times, and saw opportunities to bring in the right kind of bowlers. All of that was great, and knowing him, he set a very good atmosphere around. He\u2019s been speaking to all of us.
