Shubman Gill’s stars are on high and now their stature in the Indian team is increasing continuously. Already, Gill, who has already become an important batsman of Team India, was recently made a Test captain and the whole world saw the responsibility while handling this responsibility. In the Test series on England tour, Gill not only scored the most runs, but also drew the series 2-2, leading the team. He is going to get the reward of this strong performance. Shubman Gill is expected to be appointed as the vice-captain of the T20 team soon.
A report by Revspports claimed that Shubman Gill will be appointed as the vice-captain in the Indian team going to the Asia Cup 2025. The Asia Cup will be held in UAE from 9 September to 28 September and it will be played in T20 format. That is, now in T20, Gill will be the vice-captain of Team India, which is indicating that coach Gautam Gambhir and Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar are watching him in this important role for next year’s T20 World Cup.
With Gill being made the vice-captain, it is clear that the team management is ready to keep him in all three formats. Gill played his previous T20 match for Team India on a tour of Sri Lanka in August 2024, after which he was playing only Tests and ODI cricket. But in view of his consecutive good form in the Champions Trophy, Test cricket and IPL, he is being called again in the T20 team.
25 -year -old Gill has played 21 T20 matches for Team India, scoring 578 runs at an average of 30. Gill is one of the selected Indian batsmen who have scored international centuries in all three formats. Gill has 1 century and 3 half -centuries in T20. Recall that Gill is already the vice-captain in the ODI team and in the coming days he can also get the command of Team India in this format, which is currently in the hands of Rohit Sharma.
