Team India's young batter Shubman Gill is having a perfect outing for his County team Glamorgan. Playing against Sussex, the right-handed batter has amassed an unbeaten 91 runs off just 102 deliveries, hitting 11 fours and two maximums at the end of Day 1.
To note, this is Gill's second fifty for Glamorgan as the right-handed batter looks in sublime touch. During his innings on Day 1, Gill played several delightful strokes which included one of the ramp shots he played against Pakistan's pacer Faheem Ashraf.
Gill's ramp shot earned him a maximum against Faheem Ashraf
Talking about Gill's ramp shot, Ashraf bowled a short-delivery outside the off-stump as the right-handed batter stayed still at the crease as he casually showed the face of the bat to deviate the ball towards the third-man boundary as the stand-in official signaled a six.
