An advantage to have a captain like Kohli who wants you to go all-in and play without pressure: Shubman Gill

Indian skipper Virat Kohli has often been criticized for his experimental style of captaincy which leads to regular changes in the team. Some players have raised questions on his captaincy and have often said that making frequent changes make players uncertain about their chances in playing XI. ## However, there is another side of the coin is that he identify the real talent and throws him for the big challenges which hardly had discussed. Shubman Gill who is a big fan of Virat Kohli a player and has also admired his style of captaincy and feels that it is an advantage to have a captain like him. ## "Yes, it's definitely an advantage when your captain wants you to go all-in and there is no pressure. You won't feel that there is one percent of your game that would be left when you are on the field so it's always good for the young players when the captain backs you," Gill told IANS. ## Gill who has had a sensational tournament of the U-19 world cup in 2018 and has been very successful in domestic cricket said that Kohli has talked to him about the importance of consistency in international cricket. ## "I have interacted with him a couple of times. He just tells me to keep doing stuff that I am already doing and to have consistency on the field. Consistency is an important factor, he added.## Shubman Gill hasn't had a great start of his international career where he has played only 2 ODIs and has scored only 16 runs in those matches. However, he is among the few youngsters who are players to watch out for in the near future. ## Virat Kohli too has been impressed with India's fresh crop. Last year while commenting on the youngsters, Kohli had said, "I saw him (Gill) bat in the nets and I was like wow I was not even ten percent of that when I was 19. That's the confidence that they carry and it is great for Indian cricket if the standard keeps going up and the guys coming in can make impact performances straight away and we would be more than happy to give them the chances and help then grow.” ## Stay tuned...

Chris Evans said that playing the role of Captain America was the best decision he's ever made

Hollywood actor Chris Evans has said the playing the role of Captain America in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is the best decision he has ever made. However, the actor also confessed that he was scared and having anxiety attacks when MCU offered him the role of Captain America. ## Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Evans revealed that initially, he turned down the role of Captain America despite the six-film deal and a higher salary. It was the time when his family and friends pushed him for the role telling him he was making his decision based on fear to which the actor also agreed. ## "And it really just kind of clicked and it really did start to make sense to me that way, so I said 'Yeah. I think that's why the whole first movie, my hair was on fire, you're so scared just like 'Oh my god, I can't believe I'm doing this and please don't backfire, please don't blow up in my face. And not only did it not, but it was the best decision I've ever made, and I really owe that to Kevin Feige for being persistent and helping me avoid making a giant mistake. To be honest, all the things that I was fearing never really came to fruition." ## Chris Evans also confirmed that one of the main reasons for him to take up the challenge was none other than Robert Downey Jr, his MCU frenemy Iron Man who comfort him about the Marvel Method. ## "I knew where they wanted to go, that's part of the initial deal, not just for Captain America but for Avengers movies and that was daunting. And just hearing him kind of give you that little nudge of encouragement, it just made me feel a little bit more like I was part of the gang and not so intimidated".## "I guess it was a double-edged sword, on the one hand, it makes you feel very welcome but on the other hand, you just think 'Oh man, I gotta stand next to this guy? He's crushing this role. I don't want to be the weak link here.' But it was a very nice comforting thing to hear that he was in my corner," Evans said. ## FYI, as of last year's Avengers: Endgame, both Captain America and Iron Man bid adieu to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movies and will not appear in any future project of MCU.
