Shubman Gill Creates History with Surprise Record in Afghanistan ODI
Shubman Gill continues to rock the cricket world with his batting skills. In the last three weeks, he has played all three formats of the game. And with the second ODI against Afghanistan, he also became the player to score a ton in all three formats in 20 days.
Shubman Gill has now proven himself to be a reliable player for the Indian team across all formats. While he may not be a part of the T20I team, his dominance in the T20s continues with his time spent in Gujarat Titans. During the second Qualifier of the IPL, he was able to bring up a century, which led Gujarat Titans to the finals.
Following this, he was also the captain of the Indian team in the one off Test against Afghanistan. In this game also, he went on to score a century for the team, which helped India to post a strong total in its first innings. In just a few days, he went on from scoring a ton in the shortest format to a ton in the longest format.
And now, he is leading the Indian team for the ODI series against Afghanistan. Winning the POTM award in the first ODI, he missed out on a ton. But in the second match, he has already scored 150 runs, with 8 overs left to go. This has made Shubman Gill a player who has scored a century in IPL, Test, and ODI in the last 20 days.
Our Take
Shubman Gill continues to dominate and send a statement to the players worldwide. Even though the Indian team is playing without Virat Kohli in this series, Shubman Gill stepped in at number three with an MRF bat and went on to score a century.
