IPL 2023: “Shubman Gill Will Perform As Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, And MS Dhoni Have” – Suresh Raina

Former India cricketer Suresh Raina is in awe of Gujarat Titans’ opener Shubman Gill following his terrific knock against the Mumbai Indians in Qualifier 2 of the 2023 Indian Premier League on Friday, May 26 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. The youngster slammed his third century of the season in the match to power the franchise to the final of the tournament.

Shubman Gill smashed seven boundaries and ten sixes in the innings of 129 runs off 60 deliveries. He surpassed Faf du Plessis in the list of most runs this season and now owns the Orange Cap. The opener has 851 runs in sixteen matches, with four fifties and three centuries. He has impressed the fans as well as former cricketers, including Suresh Raina.

“The calmness we saw. In such a big match, body language is very important. The sixes he hit later in the match, ones we call pick-up shots. He hit one off Kartikeya, and after that, he realized that he can come into the line and just hit pick-up shots,” Suresh Raina said on JioCinema.

I loved Shubman Gill’s body language, and his self-confidence: Suresh Raina

Former cricketer Suresh Raina further praises Shubman Gill’s self-confidence that reflects in his batting. He also added that the right-handed batter will perform well in big matches, just like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and MS Dhoni. Suresh Raina said on Jio Cinema,

“I loved his body language, his self-confidence, self-belief, and he’s gotten a habit of playing in big matches. Just look at Virat Kohli, as we saw last year with Jos Buttler. But the performance we saw tonight, whenever we have big games, he will perform as Virat, Rohit, and MS Dhoni have.”

The Gujarat Titans secured a 62-run win over the Mumbai Indians in Qualifier 2 of the 2023 Indian Premier League. They will take on the Chennai Super Kings in the final on Sunday, May 28 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
