Can’t understand how’s Shubman Gill over #PrithviShaw as opener in T20s. Only too much talk about intent.

When #PrithviShaw is there, there should be no doubt to make him open but seems like #BCCISelectionCommittee is more focused on #favouritism than the skills. #IndvsNZ

Hardik Pandya’s N Prithwi Shaw’s relations are definitely not good, Why would someone play 4 strike fast bowlers on a slow track in India? #IndvsNZ #T20I #cricket #NZvsIND #BCCI #PrithviShaw @PrithviShaw
