Shubman Gill Mirror Virat Kohli’s career: U -19 Test Captain Records -Coincidense APLENTY | Cricket news

In a game that thrives on heritage and inspiration, Shubman Gill is silently scripting a trip that reflects the great Virat Kohli in more than one way. The similarities between the two batsmen are not only striking, they are supernatural. From the heroes of the Under -19 World Cup to the command of Test Captain Debut, Gill is once walking a way after Kohli running himself. Both Gill and Kohli scored in all three international formats for centuries, some people have achieved. His first big moments came to the U19 World Cup, where both of them monitored for centuries and indicated the greatness to move forward. At the age of 23, both of them performed hundreds of tests on their first Test, and both became the number 1 ranked ODI batsman in the ICC rankings. His batting stability in the 50-over format also saw him reaching 1000 ODI runs, average above 50. Each won their first man of the match award against the West Indies, scored their first ODI in their fourth game, and remarkably, lost their T20I Captain Debut, but bounced back to win the series.
In the IPL, he is the only Indian to score more than 800 runs in a season and is the only person with several centuries in the same version. Both won the Orange Cap and MVP award in the same year and scored hundreds of IPL at their home places with almost equal data – 101 runs with 13 borders and just one six, all in 2023. In tests, his talent continued. Both scored over 250 as captains, both hit the Test Captain Debut in a century, and both registered their first ICC hundred against Bangladesh while being unbeaten.
