IPL 2023: Indian batter Shubman Gill in a short span of time has made himself a name. Be it any format, he has played some spectacular knocks that have put his side in a strong position and have won them games.

The batter has a double century in ODIs and a century in Tests and T20Is in just a few games. With the kind of caliber he has shown, it’s fair to say that the future of Indian Cricket is in safe hands. When the chips have been down the batter despite being a youngster has stepped up and has taken responsibility.

While the class of Shubman Gill has been one to cherish for all, he was asked to pick his dream opening partner. The Indian opener, however, wasn’t hesitant and was quick to name Sachin Tendulkar. 

Sachin Tendulkar no doubt has been the greatest ever to touch the cricket bat. He has been one of the main reasons behind the dominant force the Indian cricket Team is today. Many young and even veterans idolise him and he has shown the way to various players how to approach their game.

Sachin Tendulkar has etched his name in every record book, some of which are still unbroken. In his illustrious career spanning 24 years, the prolific Indian batter has scored 34,357 across the formats to go with 100 centuries. 

On the other hand, Gill is on the same path as Sachin started. The batter in his short career so far has achieved many remarkable things and with the way he’s going, it’s fair to say that he can do wonders.

Shubman Gill is currently plying his trade for Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2023. The batter had kick-started the campaign on high as he played a staggering inning in his side’s open game against Chennai Super Kings (CSK). The right-hander smashed a staggering half-century in the first game and guided his side to win. 

He looked good in the second game against Delhi Capitals but perished early for 14 runs. But with the kind of form he’s going in, he’s expected to play a big role for the team in the IPL 2023. It’s fair to say that if GT needs to fancy their chances of winning their second consecutive tournament, Gill needs to fire and show the way to his team.
