Shubman Gill’s Warning: The Dangers of Thinking About T20 World Cup Instead of GT

Gujarat Titans skipper Shubman Gill says that he is not putting his mind too much into his selection for the World Cup. Shubman Gill is one of the contenders who is in line to open the batting for India.

Gill has been in good form in this year’s IPL as well. The star batter has so far scored 304 runs in nine matches at an average of 38. The star batter said that he is completely focused on doing well in the IPL. 

Shubman Gill said, “Playing for India is the biggest thing. But if I start thinking about the World Cup, then I will be doing injustice to my current team (GT) and myself.”

Gill further added,If I have to be picked for the T20 World Cup, I will be picked. But right now, my focus is on IPL and how to get the best out of my team and perform the best for my team, which also helps my players”. 

Gill had previously featured for India in the World Cup, but he says that he is not thinking too far ahead, but he wants himself to be a part of India’s World Cup squad.

Shubman Gill said, “Obviously, as a player, I want to be there and play the World Cup and get that opportunity to represent my country at the highest level—the biggest stage of T20 cricket.”

“Having played in a World Cup last year, I have had my share of experiences, and it would be great to be able to play in another World Cup. But I am not thinking that far ahead.”
