I don’t like playing third. I think you should either open or bat at number five or six. Gill is a very smart player who understands the game very well. Gill has previously played at number three.
He also has Ranji Trophy experience. He can perform well in Test cricket. Rohit Sharma has said that if the opener is out or the first bowler is injured, then you have to play the role of the opener.
