India batter Shubman Gill believes that the team will have to put up a massive first-inning total against Australia in the third match of the Border-Gavaskar series which is set to commence from December 14 in Brisbane.
Gill didn’t feature in the first Test in Perth due to a thumb injury, but did look in good touch during his innings of 31 and 28 in the pink-ball Test at the Adelaide Oval where India ended up losing comprehensively by 10 wickets.
“As a batting group, we are looking to post a big total first up. That’s been the key discussion and every batter has his own game plan,” Gill said at the pre-match press conference.
Gill admitted that the team didn’t do well in the Adelaide Test, adding that following the their defeat in the second Test, it is now a 3-match series for the side.
“Adelaide Test, we didn’t do well but the series is still 1-1. We will treat it as a three-match Test series and if we win this one, we will have advantage going into Melbourne and Sydney,” Gill said.
