Shubman Gill is one of India’s brightest prospects. In a limited time in international cricket, the Punjab batter has shown his potential and class to cricket enthusiasts. He also has a good head on his shoulders and understands the game quite well. It is evident from how maturely he speaks during interviews. The Under-19 World Cup winner has all the ingredients to be a future India captain if he keeps his feet grounded.
“When you represent your country, there is no fatigue. It was my dream to play for India, and I am very fortunate to be a part of the team in all three formats.”
“It is not about hitting fours or sixes for me. For me, the intent is to score, to look for runs. I want to play less dot balls, want to keep ticking singles, doubles, or boundaries. Don’t want to do just dots and boundaries.”
“Virat Bhai has been my hero and idol, his passion, commitment, energy motivates me a lot.”
“I grew up in a small village where my dad began coaching me from a very young age. To make sure I practiced every day, he’d call the neighbours’ kids to bowl - bribing them to take me out, but they never could.”
“Yuvi paaji made me video call [Sachin] Tendulkar sir. He told me to work a bit on my back lift. Inputs from legends like Yuvi paaji and Sachin sir helped me raise my game.”
“It is great opening with someone like Rohit bhai and then (batting with) Virat bhai. When they come to bat, all the focus and eyes are on them. It is easier for the other batter to just operate because the opposition is always trying to get them out. They focus so much on them that it is easier for the other person to get the job done.”
“Each and every practice session counts and matters. Before every practice session you should know why are you going for practice, what is your aim and that is what I to do – have purposeful practice sessions.”
“The key to maintaining consistency for me is to have consistency in everything. That is having consistency in your diet, work, practice sessions, and training sessions. All of that combined over a period of time makes you consistent (on the field).”
“If you are improving on your fitness, you won’t know, but there will be reflexes, there will be other things which are growing and that helps you when you’re batting.”
“Now with me being among the other international players, it’s just more opportunity to me, express more as a player and as a cricketer and I feel it adds more responsibility to me and how I wanna express myself as a player in this lovely game that we all know as cricket.”
“Between Messi and Ronaldo, I admire Messi for his passion and the physical disorder he had to overcome to get here. It’s astonishing to see the kind of career he has had despite his physique.”
“I was just trying to minimise my dot-ball percentage. I just tried to time the ball and not hit it hard.”
