Shubman Gill: Bold decisions are key to unlocking the best in players

India Test captain Shubman Gill on Tuesday said he does not hesitate in taking "bold decisions" to extract the best out of his players as he gets used to the highly-scrutinised role. Gill's first Test assignment as leader was the marquee five-match away series against England which was ended in a 2-2 draw, before he led the side to a 2-0 clean sweep over the West Indies following a seven-wicket win in the second match here on Tuesday. "I try to make the most probable decision in the given situation that we're in that game. And sometimes you have to take a little bit of bold decisions and that X factor depending on which player can get you certain runs or can get you those wickets," he said. "I would say I am kind of getting used to it, managing all the players in this side," the 26-year-old Gill answered when asked about his evolution as a leader. "I enjoy responsibility.

The 36-year-old picked up eight wickets and struck a 104-run knock in the opening game in Ahmedabad. "I think we know what brand of cricket we've been playing over the last five, six months. So, that's a good sign as a team, that we continue to do it over a long period of time," Jadeja said in the post-match presentation ceremony. "As Gauti bhai (Gambhir) said, I am at number six now. So I am thinking more as a proper batsman, and that works for me. In the past, for many years, I've been batting at number eight, number nine, so my mindset was a .
