Twitter Reactions: Shubman Gill gets trolled after dismal Vijay Hazare Trophy outing versus Goa

Shubman Gill's return to the Vijay Hazare Trophy didn't turn out to be too fruitful as he scored just 11 runs off 12 balls against Goa at the KL Saini Ground in Jaipur on Tuesday, January 6.

The stage was set for the right-handed batter to get some match practice ahead of the three-match ODI series against New Zealand. Goa were bowled out for just 211 in 33.3 overs after Prabhsimran Singh won the toss and opted to bowl first. There was no scoreboard pressure on Shubman, but he was sent packing by

former Karnataka speedster Vasuki Koushik in the fifth over. He was caught by Suyash Prabhudessai.

Shubman hasn't registered a 50-plus score in the white-ball format since February 20, 2025. He has played seven ODIs during this period. The Punjab batter was recently dropped from India's squad for the T20 World Cup. He didn't score a single half-century in the 15 T20Is he played in the year gone by. After his latest failure in domestic cricket, all eyes will be on his performances against the Kiwis in the upcoming ODIs.

After getting dismissed cheaply against Goa, Shubman was mercilessly trolled on social media, with some users opining that the 26-year-old can't even survive against club-level bowlers these days.

Here's a look at how social media users trolled Shubman after his dismal outing vs Goa:

Shubman Gill fell short of a century by just 89 runs today. Unfortunate dismissal for our captain — the ball clearly didn’t respect his leadership....
Now it makes sense why he skipped the Maharashtra match. Domestic pitches don’t come with the ‘flat track.... pic.twitter.com/4bP1bkeWdS

Shubman gill tried to kill the swing by stepping forward but the swing survived, Gill didn’t...
Once again proving why flat tracks are in his comfort zone....
Gill vs swing: strategy failed....
Gill vs flat track: unbeaten...😄😄 pic.twitter.com/e7R5EEouBv

Shubman Gill gets out on 11 runs off 12 balls in a VHT match against Goa.

This could well be a beginning of his downfall 📉.

While Shubman failed to deliver with the bat, Punjab managed to pick up a comfortable win against the Deepraj Gaonkar-led side. Punjab romped home in 35 overs on Tuesday, with six wickets left in the bank. With this win, Prabhsimran and Co. held onto the top spot in Group C, with 20 points from six matches.
