Shastri Names Shubman Gill as Indian Cricket’s Next Star
The world of Indian cricket is constantly evolving. After legends like MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli, fans have eagerly awaited the next poster boy. Now, Ravi Shastri has ended the suspense.
Speaking to the Times of India, Shastri said, “He’s young, he’s fresh, and he’s got the looks. He’s the next pin-up boy of Indian cricket.” Clearly, he was referring to Shubman Gill.
Gill’s Rise in Indian Cricket
Shubman Gill has shown exceptional talent from a young age. His performances in the Under-19 World Cup marked him as a future star. Since then, he has grown steadily in every format.
Notably, he has impressed in Tests, ODIs, and T20s. His double century in ODIs and his hundred against Australia in Ahmedabad show his range. Additionally, his calm and focused demeanor under pressure sets him apart.
A Star On and Off the Field
Beyond cricket, Gill is becoming a youth icon. His fashion sense, charm, and social media presence add to his appeal. As a result, brands have started lining up for endorsements.
Ravi Shastri believes that Gill’s all-round persona is key. He said, “In Indian cricket, you need both performance and presence. Gill has both.”
Stepping Into Big Shoes
With Dhoni retired and Kohli nearing the twilight of his career, India needs fresh faces. Gill seems ready to step into that role. Moreover, he connects well with young fans.
Transitioning into such a role isn’t easy. However, Gill’s performances, confidence, and character suggest he is up to the challenge.
Why Gill Stands Out
Consistent Form: Gill delivers across all formats.
Mental Strength: He stays calm under pressure.
Appeal: He is already a known face in advertising.
Youth Connect: His fan following is strong, especially among the youth.

If he continues this journey with discipline and focus, he may soon reach the heights of Kohli and Dhoni.
