Young batter Shubman Gill became the talk of the town after he gave back-to-back brilliant performances in the recently concluded IPL 2023. The Gujarat Titans batter smashed 890 runs in 17 matches and emerged as the highest run-scorer of the season, with three centuries to his name. Before shining in the IPL, Gill had already made a big name in international cricket, having hit centuries in all three formats of the game, including a double hundred in ODI. Seeing his consistent good performances, former Pakistan pacer Wasim Akram went on to compare the youngster to India legend Sachin Tendulkar.
