Shubman Gill scored 92 runs in the crucial IND vs SL World Cup clash to take amass 1426 runs on ODIs in 2023.
Questions remain about whether Shubman Gill will be able to surpass the record set by Sachin Tendulkar back in 1998 when the Masterblaster amassed a whopping 1894 runs from 34 games.
Despite a rather shaky start in the ongoing ICC World Cup, Shubman Gill registered his 2nd Fifty in only his 5th game of the tournament. It was a heartbreak for the Indian Cricket fans who were disappointed when Gill was dismissed on 92, missing the special 3-digit mark by just 8 runs.

1426 runs from 25 matches, with the highest score of 208 accompanied by 5 tons and 7 half-centuries, Shubman Gill has been a level apart from the rest.

But against Sri Lanka, Gill showed his class. He managed to score 92 runs in equal balls and stitched a strong partnership with Virat Kohli.
