Gill was dismissed on his first ball during India’s 51-run loss to South Africa in New Chandigarh on Thursday as the Proteas levelled the five-match T20I series at 1-1<\/a>, while Surykumar didn’t fare much better as he lasted just four deliveries for his five runs.<\/p>\n

That would normally cause alarm bells for teams less than two months out from the next edition of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup<\/a>, but the India camp are remaining calm and expect the duo to come good sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n

“I saw some good signs of a change of mentality (from Gill) on the backend of that Australian tour (in November),” ten Doeschate noted.<\/p>\n

“The two dismissals in this series (against South Africa), I thought in the first game we asked the guys to go out there and attack the Powerplay and it wasn’t a great wicket at Cuttack, so I will let him off that one.<\/p>\n

“And I thought he got a good ball today which can happen when you are short on form.<\/p>\n

“But we also know the class. If you look at his IPL record where he stacks up 700 runs, 600 runs, 800 runs, 600 runs.<\/p>\n

“We believe in his class and we believe he will come good.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Gill was dismissed on his first ball during India’s 51-run loss to South Africa in New Chandigarh on…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":627666,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4101],"tags":[1406,145387,145385,11096,145401,186692,145406,145388,2192,145405,186690,145389,30566,186695,79,186691,186693,145386,16,15,186694],"class_list":{"0":"post-627665","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cricket","8":"tag-cricket","9":"tag-cricket-breaking-news","10":"tag-cricket-headlines-today","11":"tag-cricket-news","12":"tag-cricket-series-updates","13":"tag-cricket-world-cup-headlines","14":"tag-cricket-world-cup-news","15":"tag-cricket-world-news","16":"tag-icc","17":"tag-icc-cricket-updates","18":"tag-icc-mens-t20-world-cup-news","19":"tag-international-cricket-news","20":"tag-latest-cricket-news","21":"tag-latest-icc-announcements","22":"tag-sports","23":"tag-t20-world-cup-news-updates","24":"tag-today-cricket-match-news","25":"tag-today-cricket-news-update","26":"tag-uk","27":"tag-united-kingdom","28":"tag-world-cup-cricket-articles"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":"Validation failed: Text character limit of 500 exceeded"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/627665","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=627665"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/627665\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/627666"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=627665"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=627665"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=627665"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
