MUMBAI: So far, 2023 has been the year of Shubman Gill. Coming of age in grand fashion, the 23-year-old elegant batsman has been on a run-making spree, averaging 60 across 18 innings in a prolific span which has seen him notch up hundreds in all the three formats of the game, including an double-hundred in an ODI against New Zealand at Hyderabad and a century against Australia in the drawn fourth and final Test at the Motera in Ahmedabad.
As they look to defend their IPL title, the Gujarat Titans will hope that Gill maintains his golden touch in the T20 league. The youngster had stroked 483 runs in 16 matches @34.50, with four fifties, apart from 45 not out against the Rajasthan Royals in the final at Ahmedabad to play an instrumental role in GT’s memorable IPL triumph in their maiden season last year.
