Shubman Gill is slowly establishing himself as one of the most reliable batsmen in the Indian team, especially in the ODI format, thanks to his consistent performances over the past year. He is the leading scorer in the format in what is a World Cup year and has quickly risen to the top of the rankings, where he is only behind Babar Azam.
Gill, in the other formats, has had a decent record but is yet to reach the level of where he is in ODI cricket. After all, the right-hander averages over 60 in ODIs, while in the other 2 formats, the youngster just about averages above 30. He has just started and still has a long way to go in international cricket.
Since Gill made his debut for the Indian team in 2019, he has hit numerous tons at the senior level across formats. We will look at some of the standout performances by the 24-year-old in international cricket.
