Shubman Gill is technically so sound that batting is very easy for him: Hardik Pandya
"He's technically so sound that it's (batting) very easy for him. It's just a switch he needs to do to play T20, ODI and Test cricket because he has the game for all three formats. So, to be honest, he's not someone who does not need to play behind the wicket because of the kind of shots he can play all around in front (of the wicket) with the kind of gaps there."
