England's veteran speedster James Anderson recently opened up about sledging Shubman Gill which later turned out to be a heated argument between the Team India player and Johnny Bairstow. Team India recently thrashed England 5-match Test series by 4-1. The India vs England Test series concluded with the hosts winning the final match in picturesque Dharamshala by an innings. However, INDvsENG's fifth Test turned tense, and tempers flared when Shubman Gill, Johnny Bairstow, and James Anderson were involved in a heated exchange. 

 

Anderson has revealed he was the one to begin the war of words with Gill. Anderson in a podcast for a UK media said, "I said something to him like, ‘Do you get any runs outside India?’ and he said, ‘It’s time to retire’. Interestingly, two balls after that Anderson clean bowled Shubman Gill. However, till then Shubman Gill was already playing on 110. 

 

Interestingly, Shubman Gill averages 41.38 on home soil with three centuries, while averaging 29.66 outside India.
