India’s assistant coach Abhishek Nayar said Shubman Gill looked very comfortable while batting as per his perspective ahead of two-day pink-ball practice game against Prime Minister’s XI at the Manuka Oval, starting on Saturday.

Gill had missed out on India’s 295-run win in Perth due to a left thumb injury sustained in the match at the WACA Ground. “He is batting right now and our physio will evaluate him and I will know his status after that. But from what I have seen, he is looking comfortable batting and he looks like he can bat [in a match]. He is batting in the indoor nets and we will know if he can play the practice match or not,” said Nayar to reporters on the sidelines of India’s practice session.
