Shubman Gill - Virat Kohli

ICC U19 Cricket World Cup - Final: Australia v India

Some may believe the hype for Prithvi Shaw is extensive; Shubman Gill's probably more! Player of the tournament in the ICC U-19 World Cup, Gill has a penchant for big runs. His average of 124 at a strike rate of 112.38 is a testament to what an amazing tournament he had. He continued his impressive form for the Kolkata Knight Riders, playing crucial innings from time to time.

There is an uncanny similarity in the way Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli play their shots. Having modeled his game to Virat's, their shots at times look near identical. Whether it is a short arm jab over midwicket or an imperious cover drive, the resemblance is uncanny. By the looks of it, Gill is destined for a great future and a potential future captain for the National side.
