Most T20I runs for India Shubman Gill: The ICC Men's T20 World Cup is over. After waiting for a few days, the Indian team is going to be seen in action once again but this time the young players will take charge of the field because the seniors have been rested. These young players have got a chance to show their skills in the Zimbabwe series, where Team India has to start the 5-match T20 International series from July 6 in Harare. The first T20 match between Zimbabwe and India will start at 4:30 pm Indian time. Shubman Gill has been given the responsibility of captaincy for this tour, he will take charge for the first time at the international level.
Shubman Gill, who started his T20 International career last year, has played only 14 matches so far, as he gets very few opportunities on a regular basis. However, now in the first match of the Zimbabwe series, he will have a chance to leave behind many strong players in the list of highest run-scorers for Team India in this format.
In fact, Gill has scored 335 runs in 14 innings played in T20 International at an average of 25.76. He needs to score 65 runs to complete 400 runs and by doing so, he will leave behind Virender Sehwag (395), Ajinkya Rahane (375), Sanju Samson (374), Deepak Hooda (368), Rinku Singh (356) and Tilak Verma (336). In this way, by joining the 400-run club, these 6 batsmen will fall behind Gill in the list of highest run-scorers for India.
For Shubman Gill, who has tasted captaincy in domestic cricket and IPL, captaining Team India is a big opportunity as well as a challenge. Gill is seen as a batsman in all three formats and there is every possibility of a change in the captaincy of Team India in the next few years, as Rohit Sharma is getting older and has also said goodbye to T20 International. In such a situation, Gill has a great opportunity to capitalize on future opportunities and show his leadership ability by doing well in the Zimbabwe series.
