The newly appointed skipper of Gujarat Titans, Shubman Gill, has drawn significant attention on social media for his amusing and entertaining moments off the field. Gill, who opens the batting for GT, has become a fan favorite in India for his humorous antics. In a recent Instagram video by Gujarat Titans, Gill is shown entering the team hotel lobby and being welcomed with a ceremonial shawl. But the highlight comes when a young female fan cannot contain her excitement at seeing the Indian batter in person. The video captures her endearing reaction, providing a delightful glimpse into Gill’s popularity.
Shubman Gill was greeted with a shower of flowers as he walked out. A woman in the crowd appeared spellbound at the sight of the GT captain, likely an ardent fan. Beaming delightfully, she clasped her hands to her chest and smiled brightly. The video also featured a hilarious entry song for Gill – “Tune Maari Entry Yaar” from Gunday. The girl’s heartwarming reaction to seeing the Indian batter resonated with fans.
This post garnered a lot of attention from fan users. Many users posted amusing comments. One user commented, “That girl is giving my reactions,” while others responded with similar sentiments, such as, “The girl is soooo me.”
On Wednesday, the Gujarat Titans suffered an embarrassing defeat against the Delhi Capitals, scoring just 89 runs—their lowest total ever in IPL history. Despite dismissing four DC batters, Gujarat’s spirited bowling effort was not enough, and they conceded their fourth loss of the season.
Shubman Gill has embodied excellent leadership as captain of the Gujarat Titans this season. The opener has scored a team-high 263 runs in seven matches thus far, guiding the new franchise to success in their inaugural IPL campaign. Gill was named captain of Gujarat after former skipper Hardik Pandya joined the Mumbai Indians ahead of the 2024 season.
