**Delhi, India** – A mix-up between Indian captain Shubman Gill and opener Yashasvi Jaiswal led to a controversial run-out on Day 2 of the second Test against the West Indies, igniting debate and potentially creating tension within the Indian dressing room.
Jaiswal, who was on a dominant 175 after a stellar first day, pushed a delivery to mid-off and called for a single that Gill clearly wasn’t interested in. Jaiswal was left stranded, resulting in his dismissal just shy of a potential double century.
The young opener visibly expressed his frustration, repeatedly stating, “Mera call hai (It was my call).” Replays indicated a tight call that some believe warranted third umpire intervention, adding fuel to the controversy.
Commentators, including former India wicketkeeper Dinesh Karthik, speculated on the potential dressing room exchange. Karthik suggested Gill would likely acknowledge the miscommunication but point out the lack of previous successful runs to that area of the field.
Former India coach Anil Kumble noted that Jaiswal was on track for a possible triple century, highlighting the magnitude of the lost opportunity. Jaiswal was later seen in conversation with vice-captain Ravindra Jadeja, likely still processing the dismissal.
The incident marks an early test of Gill’s leadership, as he must now navigate the emotional fallout from this communication breakdown and ensure the team remains focused on securing a victory against the West Indies.
