Shubman Gill

Shubman Gill is an Indian international cricketer and one of the leading batsmen of his generation. A right-handed top-order batter, Gill represents India across international cricket and captains both India's Test and ODI teams as well as the Gujarat Titans in the Indian Premier League.

Born in Fazilka, Punjab, Gill developed an interest in cricket at a very young age and moved to Mohali with his family to access better training facilities. His breakthrough came at the 2018 ICC Under-19 World Cup, where he scored 372 runs and was named Player of the Tournament as India won the title.

Gill made his ODI debut in 2019 and his Test debut against Australia in 2020. His performances during India's historic 2020–21 tour of Australia, including a crucial 91 at the Gabba, established him as a major international prospect. In the IPL, he became a key player for Kolkata Knight Riders before moving to Gujarat Titans, whom he was appointed captain of ahead of the 2024 season.

His 2023 IPL campaign was one of the standout seasons of his career, with 890 runs and the Orange Cap. In 2025, Gill was appointed India's Test captain and subsequently became a central figure in India's leadership group. In September 2026, he scored an unbeaten 223 against the West Indies, becoming only the second batter after Rohit Sharma to record multiple ODI double centuries.
