How India can make room for Shubman in T20 jigsaw
Hindustan Times Delhi
|September 02, 2025
This is how Shubman Gill's extraordinary T201 career curve for India looks so far.
He made his debut against Sri Lanka in the first week of 2023 and within a month had an unbeaten hundred against New Zealand at a strike rate of 200. It preceded a string of single-digit scores book-ending a 47-ball 77 against West Indies in an audacious chase of 178 that was clinched with three overs to spare. By July 2024, he was named vice-captain even though he only made it to the reserves for the T20 World Cup in June. England came calling earlier this year but Axar Patel was appointed vice-captain.
And now, not exactly out of nowhere, Gill is again the vice-captain. Runs and only runs have made this possible. Third highest scorer for India in the Champions Trophy, followed by his record-breaking run in the five-Test series in England have made Gill's viability as an all-format batter tenable. But pivotal has to be this IPL season for Gill, churning 650 runs for Gujarat Titans at a strike rate of 155.87 as captain and as opener.
