Shubhman Gill: If we talk about the future stars of Team India, then everyone's eyes will be on one player. Actually, we are talking about right-handed batsman Shubman Gill. In a very short time, this player from Punjab has secured a place in Team India on the basis of his talent.

The BCCI has appointed the 24-year-old player as the vice-captain for the Sri Lanka tour. However, Gill's journey to reach here has been quite inspiring. He has entered international cricket after proving his mettle in domestic cricket. People still remember the innings of 268 runs played by Shubman Gill in the Ranji Trophy. Let us once again discuss that innings.

When Shubman Gill scored 268 runs

This is from the year 2018. Tamil Nadu and Punjab played against each other in the Ranji Trophy. If we talk about this match, Punjab won the toss and chose to field first. Batting first, Tamil Nadu was all out after scoring 215 runs in the first innings. In response, Punjab batsmen wreaked havoc.

Shubman Gill batted brilliantly and scored 268 runs. In this innings of 328 balls, he hit 29 fours and 4 sixes. During this, his strike rate was 81.70. Seeing him, other batsmen of the team performed well. Later this match was drawn.

Will play a big responsibility against Sri Lanka

Team India will play a series of three T20 and three ODI matches against Sri Lanka in their home from July 27. Shubman Gill will be the vice-captain of the team in both the series. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has recently appointed him to this post.

He will be seen helping Suryakumar Yadav and Rohit Sharma in taking decisions on the field. However, apart from this, Gill will also be expected to score runs with the bat and help his team win matches. It remains to be seen how he manages to perform in the upcoming series.
