India entered Day 4 with a target of 192 runs, starting at 40 for no loss. The pressure escalated as they found themselves at 120\/5, needing another 152 runs to secure a 3-1 lead in the series. RP Singh highlighted the critical juncture, stating, “If one more wicket had fallen, our situation might have become even tighter.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Singh praised Gill’s adaptability, emphasizing the importance of a player adjusting their batting according to the situation. He pointed out how Gill’s slightly defensive approach played a crucial role in steering India out of a challenging position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Shubman held one end up and decided that they would have to bat in a slightly defensive fashion and spend a little time,” Singh explained. This strategic move proved vital as Gill, along with Dhruv Jurel, orchestrated an unbroken 72-run sixth-wicket partnership to secure the win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dhruv Jurel, joining Gill in the middle at 120\/5, showcased resilience with his 39* off 77 balls. Together, they weathered the storm, showcasing a formidable partnership that not only rescued India from a precarious situation but also clinched a memorable victory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
