Mini bio
How it started.
Gill decided at five that he wanted to play cricket. His father moved the family from Jalalabad to Chandigarh for better facilities, and young Shubman practised by copying the drives of Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid and VVS Laxman. At 14, he scored 351 in a Punjab Under-16 inter-district match.
The breakthrough.
The 2018 Under-19 World Cup introduced him to a much wider audience. He scored 372 runs and was named Player of the Tournament as India won the title. Later that year, he made an unbeaten 57 for Kolkata Knight Riders against Chennai Super Kings, his first Twenty20 half-century.
Building a senior career.
Gill made his India debut in 2019. His 91 at the Gabba helped India win the 2020–21 Test series in Australia. He was part of Gujarat Titans’ IPL title win in 2022, then scored 890 runs, including three centuries, in the 2023 IPL season.
Taking the lead.
Gujarat Titans appointed Gill captain ahead of IPL 2024. India gave him the Test captaincy in May 2025 and the ODI captaincy that October. His first England tour as Test captain included innings of 269 and 161 at Edgbaston.
Beyond the crease.
Gill also voiced Indian Spider-Man Pavitr Prabhakar in the Hindi and Punjabi versions of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse. Fans can follow his own Instagram and X accounts for updates beyond match reports.
