Young batter Shubman Gill from India has shown great form. From his first international ton against Zimbabwe to his first County Cricket century for Glamorgan, Gill has put his best foot forward in all formats. Since his debut in 2019, Gill has been touted as the next big thing in Indian cricket. Gill, who currently plays in County Championship for Glamorgan, became a talking point after playing a century against Sussex. Many pundits and fans came forward to commend the right-handed batter for his stellar performance.
Likewise, former Indian batter Rohan Gavaskar also shared his views on Gill, calling him an “all format player”.
“It was Amol Mazumdar who first mentioned Shubman Gill to me before he even broke through because Amol saw him at the NCA, he went to coach at the NCA and he came up to me and said, ‘Rohan, I have a absolute superstar! He is someone who will definitely play for India. I have no doubts about it.” He is one of those who will be an all-format player, Rohan Gavaskar told Sports18.
“He shows that. He is more than capable of holding his own in white ball cricket. In red ball cricket his numbers are just amazing. Again he is someone, when I say cherished I mean He has the right opportunities because he has shown that he has the ability and there is no doubt about it,” he added.
