GT opener Shubman Gill described the six he hit off Abhishek Sharma during the IPL 2023 match against SRH as the most pleasing stroke during his knock. Gill hit Sharma for a six and a four in the 12th over of the match. That was, in fact, Gill’s only six in the match.
Shubman Gill said in the post-match press conference –
“The most satisfying one [stroke] was probably the six off Abhishek [Sharma] because we are childhood friends. I think I told him before the match that, ‘if you bowl to me, I’m going to hit you for six’. That was most pleasing for me.”
Shubman Gill added – “It’s quite pleasing. I made my IPL debut against SRH and got my first hundred against them, I feel like it [life] has come a full circle. It feels great to get my first IPL hundred. Hopefully, I’ll get some more of those. Hopefully, in this season as well.”
