Player Profile
Shubman Gill is widely regarded as one of cricket’s most promising young talents and a future cornerstone of Indian batting. With his classical technique, elegance at the crease, and sound temperament, Gill has drawn comparisons to legends like Virat Kohli early in his career. Rising to prominence after the 2018 U-19 World Cup triumph under Prithvi Shaw’s captaincy, Gill made his mark in international cricket during India’s famous 2020-21 series win in Australia. His ability to adapt across formats, particularly his transformation into a formidable white-ball player, has been remarkable. In ODIs, his consistency and ability to convert starts into big scores have established him as a mainstay in India’s top order. With a double century to his name at such a young age and his impressive performances in the IPL, Gill represents the next generation of Indian cricket stars.
