The day after the Gambhir-Fortis blow-up… We are at The Oval, watching the Indian team warm-up after the captain’s press conference. As expected, a few questions were directed at Shubman Gill about yesterday’s episode where the pitch curator had instructed the Indian team members to maintain a 2.5m distance from the pitch, resulting in Gambhir’s outburst.

A spot of a drizzle had led the ground staff, led by Lee Fortis, to cover the pitch and lower the practice nets. But that was done with, and the full Indian side, along with head coach Gautam Gambhir, arrived for the warm-up. Gambhir looks relaxed and is seen exchanging words with Gill and Jasprit Bumrah.
