Shubman Gill And Sachin Tendulkar Relationship: Gill was given the Player of the Match award for the game against MI. After the game, the starter was seen talking to Sachin Tendulkar.
When Sunil Gavaskar left, cricket fans around the world asked, “Who’s next?” and Sachin Tendulkar came along to rule the sport. At the end of his career, the question came up again, and Virat Kohli stepped up.
Even though the Run Machine isn’t done with the sport yet, his likely successor has come. Last week, Shubman Gill’s match-winning hundred beat Kohli’s ton, and on Friday, in front of the great Sachin, Gill hit his third century in the IPL 2023.
Even though both of the older stars were upset, there was no doubt a smile and some respect as they watched a young player rise to the top and get ready to take the cricket world by storm.
Shubman Gill And Sachin Tendulkar Relationship
Gill’s year has been a good one. He went into this year’s IPL after scoring his first T20I century in January, a Test hundred in the Border-Gavaskar series against Australia in February, and a record-setting double century in ODIs in between.
The 23-year-old then kept up his great play in the IPL 2023, where he finally got his first century at his favorite Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
He then got another one against Royal Challengers Bangalore at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, and then he got his third in just four innings in the Qualifier 2 match against Mumbai Indians, which was a big moment in his career.
The 129 runs scored in just 60 balls is the most any batter has ever scored in the IPL playoffs. With this run, he now has 851 runs for the season, making him the second Indian batter after Kohli to score 800 or more runs in a season. Overall, he now has the third-most runs of any player.
After the game against MI, where Gill got the Player of the Match award for his record knock and GT cruised to a second straight final with a 62-run win in Ahmedabad, the opener was seen having a serious conversation with Sachin, who is the coach of the MI team. The picture spread quickly through social media.
