Bengaluru — England limited-overs skipper Eoin Morgan hailed rising India batsman Shubman Gill after the young opener’s unbeaten 70 helped Kolkata Knight Riders beat Sunrisers Hyderabad on Saturday for their first win of the Indian Premier League season.
“I didn’t have to tell him a great deal. He’s beautiful to watch, lovely long languid swing of the bat so I look forward to batting with him again because it was magnificent,” Morgan said. He singled out Gill’s ability to remain focused after scoring his fifth half-century for Kolkata and 10th overall in the IPL, to help them cross the finish line chasing 143
The 21-year-old Gill also received praise from Australian pace bowler Pat Cummins, who conceded 19 runs and claimed one wicket in his quota of four overs. “This guy next to me batted beautifully,” Cummins said as he decoded the team’s victory alongside Gill.
