Gill’s chase at Edgbaston showed why India already have Kohli’s ODI heir

Shubman Gill’s unbeaten 80 against England in the first ODI at Edgbaston was a lesson in calculated ODI batting rather than outright aggression. On a seamer-friendly surface, he absorbed pressure, rebuilt after India’s early setbacks and accelerated at the right moments to steer the chase. Even cramps couldn’t derail his composure, reinforcing why Gill, who is still uncertain for the second ODI in Cardiff, is rapidly becoming India’s premier chase specialist, much like Virat Kohli.
