Shubman Gill is one of the most effective batters with stamina for playing big innings and scoring centuries in Test, Test ODI, and T20I. His habit of scoring more runs helped to bring him into selectors’ eyes. He is the man with solid performances with the bat in the current Indian batting lineup.
He is known for his elegant batting style, solid technique, and defense. The majority of his Indian fans compare him with Virender Sehwag, but Sehwag was a far more aggressive opener than Shubman Gill. However, Shubman Gill is making headlines by scoring a back-to-back century, so fans of Gill should stay strong. He could be the next Virender Sehwag, Master blaster, run machine, and next King or God. But it is very early to predict that, but with the way he is growing quickly, chances are high that he will be among the top batters. How many centuries has Shubman scored as an Indian batter? We will find out in this article.

The story of Gill’s entry into the Indian cricket team started when he won a junior cricket award from the BCCI in 2013 and 2014. This made his way into the India U19 team. At the start of his U19 career, Gill impressed everyone with his superb performance in U19 World Cup and Youth ODI against England. He scored 351 runs in 04 innings.
At that time, Gill was compared with Prithvi Shaw, who was making headlines by scoring milestones in domestic cricket. Both are still improving, but Gill’s recent outstanding performances enabled him to pass Prithvi Shaw. Who is better, Shubman Gill or Prithvi Shaw? The debate will go on like this.
