IND vs NZ 2026: Gill Defends Spinners After Series Defeat
India just got slapped with a 1-2 defeat by New Zealand, and captain Shubman Gill is fuming! He’s defending his spinners, Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav, who were about as useful as a burnt soufflé. Jadeja? Wicketless and leaking runs like a sieve! Gill’s saying it’s all part of the game, but come on, lads, it’s time to step up!
Quick rundown
- Gill backs Jaddu, noting he was in good batting rhythm even as others didn’t convert starts.
- Kuldeep Yadav leaks runs and goes wicketless as NZ neutralises his spin threat.
- Jadeja's home ODI fifty drought continues since 2013, though his fielding rhythm stays lively.
- Batters failed to convert starts; India needs sharper finishing in high-scoring conditions.
- Gill stresses learning and growing from the setback—time for a comeback
