“The Job is Not Done Yet”- Shubman Gill on His Heroic Performance in IPL 2023

Gujarat Titans’ opener Shubman Gill had been in an exceptional form right from the beginning of the IPL 2023 season. However, the young batter reckons that the job is not done yet as there are multiple major events in 2023 and he wants to replicate the same performance for Team India as well.

Shubman Gill’s heroic performance in the tournament helped his side Gujarat Titans to reach the IPL 2023 Final. Tye GT batter revealed that the job is not done yet as he keeps thinking about replicating his performances for Team India in the crucial tournaments later this year, starting with the WTC final against Australia.

“It’s been great, and very fortunate, I thank the universe. But every time, like today, I have this feeling that the job is not done yet. Every time I perform and do well the next morning, I have this feeling that the job is not done yet. Once IPL finishes, the World Test Championship starts,” Shubman Gill spoke to News18.

There is always something in my mind that I look forward to: Shubman Gill

“Once WTC is over, Asia Cup will be there. Once Asia Cup is over, you’ll be like ‘Oh, the World Cup is here’. So there is always something in my mind that I look forward to, and (feel) the job is not done yet. But it’s been a great year so far for me and I’m really fortunate and really happy for that,” the young batter discussed about the upcoming major tournaments.

In the ongoing IPL 2023, Gill has taken his game to a whole new level as he has amassed 851 runs in 16 matches with 3 tons and 4 fifties to his name at an average of 60.79 and a strike rate of 156.43. He has hit 78 fours and 33 sixes so far in the tournament and has constantly kept the opponent bowlers under pressure.

Shubman Gill became only the fourth batter in the history of IPL to hit two consecutive centuries in the tournament after Shikhar Dhawan, Jos Buttler and Virat Kohli. The Gujarat Titans’ batter recently scored his third century of the season to help Gujarat Titans defeat the Mumbai Indians in Qualifier 2 to put his team into the IPL 2023 Final.
