Shubman Gill carrier:-
A right-hand top-order batsman from Punjab, Shubman Gill is known for his penchant for big runs and was hence drafted into India Under-19 side as the vice-captain for the 2018 World Cup. He made his first-class debut before that, for Punjab in the Ranji Trophy in late 2017 with a half-century in the game and an attacking 129 in the next match.
A constant feature in Rahul Dravid’s plans for the Under-19 World Cup, Gill constantly played at an age-group level above his. In 2014, he smacked 351 in Punjab’s Inter-District Under-16 tournament, and shared a record opening stand of 587 with Nirmal Singh. On his Under-16 state debut for Punjab, he made an unbeaten double-century in the Vijay Merchant Trophy. Later that year, he went on to share the stage with his idol Virat Kohli while receiving a BCCI award for the best junior cricketer, which he won for two successive years: 2014-15.
When picked for the national Under-19 side, he amassed 351 runs in four innings to be named the Man of the Series during the Youth ODI series at home against England. In the reciprocal tour, his first in English conditions, he top-scored once more, with 278 runs in four innings. India swept both series. While he was still in New Zealand for the World Cup on the day of the 2018 IPL auction, Gill was picked by Kolkata Knight Riders for INR 1.8 crore (USD 281,000 approx).
rohit sharma said:- Gill is the bonus our team he was unbeatable and great player our indian team. Gill’s latest run of form has been stunning. His last four ODI appearances have seen him register scores of 87, 60, 112 and 101* – with the most recent one a superb, mature knock to take India over the line against Bangladesh in the Champions Trophy. That isn’t even his most prolific run of scores – in January 2023, Gill reeled off 116, 208, 40* and 112 in consecutive innings.
Gill’s strike rate of 100.8 as it stands makes him one of just two players to score over 2,500 ODI runs at better than a run-a-ball at this age. Shahid Afridi is the other, but the price for Afridi’s strike rate (108.51) was a significantly lower batting average – just 23.97.
