**DHAKA, BANGLADESH – February 21, 2025** – Team India’s Shubman Gill and Mohammed Shami have lauded each other’s outstanding performances in their recent victory against Bangladesh. A video released by the team’s social media accounts captures the two cricketers exchanging heartfelt praise.
Gill heaped praise on Shami’s bowling, stating that his performance in ICC tournaments is consistently exceptional, often claiming five wickets seemingly effortlessly. He highlighted Shami’s ability to maintain pressure on new batsmen and his crucial role in securing a key catch. Gill also acknowledged Shami’s impressive comeback from injury, calling him a legend. Gill also expressed his satisfaction with his own century, his first in an ICC event, emphasizing the importance of the innings played under pressure while chasing a target.
Shami, in turn, praised Gill’s composed innings and his ability to anchor the chase, describing his century on a challenging wicket as remarkable. Shami also reflected on his own performance, attributing his success to consistent practice following a 14-month injury layoff. He expressed his hope that both he and his teammates would maintain their current form throughout the tournament.
The video comes as a counterpoint to earlier fan criticism of Harshit Rana, who replaced Arshdeep Singh in the Bangladesh match. Rana, however, silenced his critics with a three-wicket haul in the game.
