Ind vs Ban: Shubman Gill joins Virat Kohli in unwanted list after flop show in Chennai
Day 1 of the first Test between India and Bangladesh started with the Najmul Shanto-led Bangla Tigers rocking the Indian top-order with regular strikes. The first session ended with India being88/3. After being asked to bat first, at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai, India lost captain Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli for cheap. The hosts were reeling at 34-3, courtesy of Hasan Mahmud,before Yashasvi Jaiswal-Rishabh Pant revived the Indian innings. While Rohit and Kohli went for six apiece, Gill was dismissed for a eight-ball duck. With this, he joined the unwanted listalong with senior batter Kohli.
Notably, this became Gill's third duck at home in 2024, including two versus England early this year. Thus, this made him the sixthIndian batter to have threeor more ducks in a calendar year at home.
Former batter Mohinder Amarnath(1983) leads the unwanted list with five ducks to his name. The list alsocomprises ex-captain Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi (1969), Dilip Vengsarkar (1979),Vinod Kambli (1994) and Kohli (2021).

Analysis: 7 major flaws in the US-Iran 14-point peace plan
Dilip Vengsarkar (1979) - 3 ducks
Vinod Kambli (1994) - 3 ducks
Virat Kohli (2021) - 3 ducks
Shubman Gill (2024) - 3 ducks
Speaking of Gill, the right-hander scored two ducks in the England home series, which Rohit & Co. won 4-1. He managed a duck during India's unsuccessful 229-run chase in the first Test in Hyderabad and replicated the same in the first innings of the third Test in Rajkot. He, however, ended the series as the second-highest run-getter, with 453runs including two fifties and equal number of hundreds.
Thus, Gill will be looking to bounce back in style in the remainder of the Bangladesh series.
