Shubman Gill's Name Sparks Pronunciation Debate on Netflix Series

Indian cricket star Shubman Gill has become a topic of discussion on social media after his name was mentioned in the popular Netflix series "Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood Wives." In an episode of the show's third season, actress Neelam Kothari inquired about Gill's attendance at an upcoming event, prompting a humorous exchange among the cast.

The conversation quickly shifted to the pronunciation of Gill's name, with the celebrities present struggling to utter it correctly. The incident sparked a viral trend on social media, with users sharing their own attempts at pronouncing the cricketer's name.

Meanwhile, Gill's fitness has been a concern for the Indian team after he missed the first Test against New Zealand due to neck stiffness. However, Indian skipper Rohit Sharma has hinted that Gill may be available for the second Test.

"Shubman Gill seems okay at this point in time," Sharma said in a post-match press conference.

Gill was seen practicing in the nets during the first Test, indicating that he may have overcome his fitness issues. His return to the team would be a major boost for India, who suffered a disappointing defeat in the first Test.

India's batting lineup struggled in the absence of Gill, with Rachin Ravindra and Devon Conway scoring half-centuries for New Zealand. The hosts also faced a batting collapse after the introduction of the new ball, setting a target of just 107 runs for the Kiwis.

Despite a valiant fightback from Sarfaraz Khan and Rishabh Pant, India's total proved insufficient as New Zealand chased down the target with ease. The defeat marked New Zealand's first Test win in India in 36 years.
