India captain Shubman Gill's first coach was Lakhwinder Singh, a budding cricketer who became a farmer. When your father recognizes your skill early on and becomes your greatest supporter, it's undoubtedly beneficial. Even after Shubman's tremendous success on the international stage, Lakhwinder has continued to support him. Former India cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar is among those who think it's a key factor in Shubman Gill's success because his father was able to give him a solid foundation in his early years, which has helped him deal with challenging circumstances.

Additionally, even though he has scored more runs in a Test series in England than any other Indian batsman, with two games remaining, Gill is in a difficult position. India is behind 1-2. In a high-pressure circumstance, India might have easily won the game 3-0 if they had maintained their composure, but that's the nature of international cricket. A few minutes of pressure can undo hours of dominance. In addition to rallying his team following the devastating defeat at Lord's, Gill, as a young captain of the squad, must also put together a potent playing XI in the absence of injured players Akash Deep and Nitish Kumar Reddy.

Additionally, the final Test at Lord's was the first occasion where the attention was focused on Gill for the wrong reasons. Many people think that the Indian captain's excessively aggressive attitude provoked an explosive reaction from Ben Stokes and his team on Day 5.

Manjrekar is certain that Gill is not inherently aggressive like Virat Kohli. "If Shubman Gill had that kind of a fiery side to him, we would have seen it a little earlier. When you are the captain, you don't have to display it. Or did he show it because he has this newfound confidence from winning a Test match and scoring so many runs? Since you could tell that Virat Kohli was up for a fight. He was constantly looking for ways to get involved in the action. You could see him coming in there, even when he wasn't a captain. Thus, that was a characteristic we had observed even before he became captain. Manjrekar stated on ESPNcricinfo, "I've never seen it before with Shubman Gill."

Greg Chappell, a former head coach for India and a great player for Australia, predicted that Shubman Gill would have his toughest challenge in Manchester. Because he is aware of whether Gill possesses more traits of the aggressive Virat Kohli or the more measured MS Dhoni, Manjrekar believes that Shubman Gill's father's role will be crucial in this situation.

"He is surrounded by many fine individuals. In reality, his father, who had a significant role in his upbringing as he sought a career in cricket, would recognize him, would know his kid, regardless of whether he was a Virat Kohli, a potential Virat Kohli, or an MS Dhoni or somewhere in between. Somewhere in the middle, in my opinion. Therefore, he must pave his own path. But it has to be a technique that improves his leadership skills and makes him a better batsman, regardless of what it is, Manjrekar stated.
