Shubman Gill joins unwanted list following loss to Australia at Perth in first ODI as captain
Oct 19, 2025
Gill-led Team India lost by seven wickets in the rain-curtailed 26-overs-per-side first ODI at Perth on Sunday. The return of Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli fell flat as both batters departed in single digits, with the latter falling for an eight-ball duck. While India fought to score 136/9 in 26 overs, it was never enough to defend against the Mitchell Marsh-led Australian side, who now hold a 1-0 lead in the series.
