Obviously everyone would be surprised that why Gill was disappointed even after such an innings. Gill did not answer this, but the reason for his disappointment can be understood from the situation of the match. In fact, when Gill was out, Gujarat’s score was 192 runs in 16.5 overs. Although this score was enough, but the reason for Gill’s disappointment was probably hidden here.

That’s why Shubman Gill was disappointed

In fact, the death overs had already started when Gill got out. Means the last over. In such a situation, the team needed maximum runs in the remaining 3 overs. Now if any new batsman comes to the crease, he will have trouble in playing big shots immediately. Whereas Gill was already set and was playing big shots easily.
