Shubman Gill new star in making

The right-hander holds the record of being the youngest to score a double century in ODI format. Gill made his international debut in the year 2019 in an ODI match against New Zealand. After this, he did not look back and cemented his place as an opening batsman in all formats.

The 24-year-old batter has also risen to the top 4 ODI batters in the world in just a few months. He has an ODI average of 62 runs and is one of the batters to have scored a double-century in only 27 ODIs. In 2023, the 2018 U19 World Cup winner made 624 runs in nine matches with an unbelievable average of 78.00. The Punjab top-order batsman is known for his temperament and match-winning knocks. The Fazilka-born batter has also won the orange cap in IPL 2023 by smashing 890 runs.

The right-handed batter gained his form with an inning of 67 runs against Nepal and will be keen to continue that form against arch-rivals Pakistan and score some big runs. India qualified for the Super 4 stage by defeating Nepal by 10 wickets. Their first match against Pakistan was washed out due to rain. Both teams will be hoping that the weather will be clear on September 10 in Colombo.
