Shubman Gill, a consistent performer for the Indian cricket team in recent years, faces uncertainty regarding his inclusion in the T20 World Cup 2024 squad due to the fierce competition for batting slots, particularly at the top order. Despite his impressive recent form, Gill’s place is challenged by strong contenders like Yashasvi Jaiswal and KL Rahul, who offers wicket-keeping skills as well. Although Gill showcased his abilities with a stellar innings for Gujarat Titans, former New Zealand cricketer Simon Doull expressed reservations about his automatic selection, emphasizing the limited space for additional top-order batsmen in the World Cup squad. Gill’s outstanding performance, including an unbeaten half-century, was overshadowed by Shashank Singh’s explosive knock as Punjab Kings clinched a thrilling victory in an Indian Premier League match.
Simon Doull suggests that Shubman Gill may not make it into the T20 World Cup 2024 squad.
