Veteran Indian cricketer Cheteshwar Pujara believes that Shubman Gill will be looking to use the upcoming IPL season as a platform to make his way back into the T20I side after being left out of the T20 World Cup squad. Despite missing out on the global tournament, Gill’s impressive IPL record showcases his ability as a key player for Gujarat Titans, both as a batsman and a leader. Pujara emphasized the importance of Gill’s performance in the upcoming IPL season in securing his spot in the T20I squad, especially with competition for top-order positions increasing.

Pujara mentioned that there will be pressure on Gill to prove himself in the T20 format, but the IPL presents a great opportunity for him to showcase his skills and elevate his strike rate. Pujara highlighted the need for Gill to accelerate his scoring rate and demonstrate that he can adapt to the demands of T20 cricket. The veteran cricketer expressed confidence that a strong showing in the IPL could pave the way for Gill’s return to the Indian T20I team and solidify his position as a multi-format player.
