Shubman Gill was one of the star performers for the successful Indian Under-19 World Cup team which won the tournament in 2018. He was rightfully awarded the Man of the Series for his consistent performances with the bat.

In the IPL 2018, he played some crucial innings for the Dinesh Karthik-led Kolkata Knight Riders where he helped the team winning a few matches on his own with fine knocks in a packed top order.

His best moment yet came when he was selected for the national team after getting his maiden call up to the side at the expense of now suspended KL Rahul but one would think he may not get his chance right away as the top-order of India is one of the best, if not the best in the world.

Shubman Gill is still a teenager but will be an absolute superstar and one to watch out for in the future as that is evident from the fact he helped in nearly chasing down a record target set by Hyderabad in Ranji Trophy.

In his short career, he has shown thrust for scoring big runs and has over 1000 first-class runs in just 9 games at an outstanding average of 77.
