Shubman Gill drives Mitchell Starc beautifully on the up

Gill smacks Starc.

India lost wickets at regular intervals to concede the series decider against Australia by 21 runs and with it the three-match ODI assignment 2-1. Australia staged a fine comeback after putting up a par score of 269 on the board. Skipper Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill gave India a rollicking start, with the youngster playing some mesmerizing shots in particular, but both failed to convert their thirties into something of note.

After a six over deep mid-wicket in the third over of the innings, Gill creamed the in-form Mitchell Starc for a couple of delectable boundaries in the fifth over of the innings. He first played a trademark short-arm jab towards mid-on and then drove on the rise through covers. The second shot, especially, left many in awe, including captain Rohit and his predecessor Kohli.
