Shubman Gill was not expecting a call-up for India's tour to New Zealand. Certainly not after midnight on Saturday! The 2018 U-19 World Cupper was named for the limited overs tour of Kiwiland where India play five ODIs and two T20 internationals to be held after the three-match ODI series in Australia.

"Generally, I go to bed at 10.30 pm, but I couldn't fall off to sleep and was awake at 1 am when my mobile rang. The caller, my friend, conveyed the good news to me," Shubman revealed yesterday.
