Shubman Gill, the captain of the Gujarat Titans, looked excellent during the Indian Premier League 2024 (IPL 2024) match between the Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals. He produced a brilliant knock to keep his team in the contest. Despite minimal assistance from the other end, the right-handed hitter put together an outstanding 72 (44), thanks to six fours and two sixes.
Gill’s amazing strokeplay left fans in awe as he played some fantastic smashes throughout the ground during his innings. In the sixth over, the 24-year-old stunned the commentators with a couple of magnificent lofted drives against Avesh Khan. In order to gather a boundary along the ground, Gill first cleared the infield. Three balls later, he again made a spectacular shot that cleared the fence.
