If stats could tell a tale, none would be more fascinating than Gill’s. He rose to fame in 2018, leading India to ICC U19 World Cup 2018 win. Throughout the tournament, Gill performed consistently, scoring 372 runs at an average of 124. This included a match-winning 102 against Pakistan in the semi-finals that earned him praise all over the cricketing fraternity.

Gill boasts a Bradmanesque average of 67.32 in First-Class games. In the 18 games he has played, Gill has managed 1683 runs, scoring 5 centuries in the process. His IPL stats are as impressive as his domestic ones.

After being drafted by KKR in 2018, Gill scored 203 runs in 13 games at an average of 33.83. He backed this up with 296 runs in 14 games in the following season. As impressive as they are, they are not reminiscent of an individual who took the cricketing fraternity by storm not too much long ago. Gill would be keen on setting the stage alight this IPL.
