Shubman Gill Highlights Fielding and Death Bowling Concerns After West Indies ODI WinPreviousNext

India captain Shubman Gill acknowledged the team's 2-1 ODI series win over West Indies but highlighted concerns in fielding and death-over bowling after a five-wicket loss in the final match. India posted 351 runs, but West Indies chased their highest ODI total of 352, led by Shai Hope's unbeaten 162. Gill cited dropped catches, unclear bowling strategies in death overs, and slow over rates under heavy dew as key issues. Injuries and scheduling affected India's bowling lineup, prompting Gill to emphasize the need for a settled squad ahead of the 2027 World Cup.
