Classical stance hurting Gill's T20 game?

  • Shubman Gill's T20I performance in 2025 has been modest, contrasting with his strong Test form.
  • His recent technical tweak to a more classical batting stance, beneficial for Tests, may be hindering his T20 game.
  • Gill's T20I strike rate (143+) and limited six-hitting (4 in 13 matches) are lower than opening partner Abhishek Sharma.
  • Experts suggest his classical stance, favoring straight shots, makes horizontal bat shots like pulls more difficult, impacting his T20 approach.
  • Gill needs to adapt his technique for T20s to align with India's aggressive template and regain rhythm before the T20 World Cup.

Why It Matters: Gill's T20 struggles due to technique change affect his role in India's team.
