Canberra [Australia], November 30: India's assistant coach, Abhishek Nayar, and star batter Shubman Gill participated in a challenging drill filled with laughter and banter. After the first day of the match between the Prime Minister's XI and India was washed out due to rain, the Indian team made the most of the situation during a training session. In a video posted by the BCCI on social media, Gill and Nayar were assigned a stump-hitting drill by fielding coach T Dilip. The exercise was laced with humour and witty remarks. Gill was the first to hit the stump after a few attempts, but the stump remained intact. Nayar later succeeded in hitting the stump as well, but again, it didn't budge. India vs Australia Prime Minister's XI Warm-up Day 1 Abandoned Due to Rain in Canberra.

With Gill commenting in the background, "MasterChef is cooking," Dilip delivered a perfect throw, dislodging the stump on his first attempt. The fielding coach celebrated his success with a wide smile and animated gestures, while Nayar embraced him, bringing the video to a cheerful conclusion.
