Shubman Gill's speech about pitch raises questions..!?

Gujarat won the league match against mumbai Indians by a huge margin of 36 runs in the IPL 2025 season. In this situation, there have been allegations that the maintenance staff do not prepare the pitches as the team management says in stadiums like kolkata and Chennai. Even when CSK lost the match against RCB, the team's coach criticized the Fleming pitch. But Gill's statement that we decided which pitch to play on in the match against mumbai Indians has now created controversy. Fans are accusing gujarat of having special power only because it is Jayshah's hometown. Commenting on this, gujarat captain Gill said, "We had already decided that we would play on a clay pitch against Mumbai.
Because a clay pitch is better for our batting and bowling than a red clay pitch, hitting boundaries becomes difficult when playing on clay. If the ball gets old, the batsmen will stumble a lot. That is why we decided to play on this pitch against mumbai," Gill said. Rashid Khan was also given only two overs. Explaining this, Gill said, "I had planned to use Rashid Khan at the end of the innings. But the fast bowlers were bowling brilliantly. Due to this, the match came under our control. He explained that due to this, Rashid Khan did not have the opportunity to bowl. Prasit krishna praised him after bowling brilliantly in yesterday's match. He also said that the matches against Bangalore and hyderabad will provide a good challenge.
