Gill’s captaincy was often conspicuous by its absence. I also noticed the exasperation when a teammate made a mistake in the field – by contrast I can’t imagine Stokes being anything but supportive towards a young player who’s just dropped a catch. I’m not sure India have a strong team ethos or sense of togetherness at present.
I get the sense that Gill’s leadership style is more like that of Pat Cummins or Ajinkya Rahane. I agree, that he shouldn’t try to replicate Rohit or Virat’s style. I look forward to him being comfortable just being himself.
