Shubman Gill is hands-down one of the few young cricketers, who are tipped to be one of the pillars of the Indian cricket team in the future. The cricketer has already broken a series of records and is predicted by many as the successor of legendary Indian cricketer and Royal Challengers Bangalore captain, Virat Kohli. Apart from making a name for himself in international cricket, Shubman is also one of the most fearsome batters in the Indian Premier League (IPL). It was in 2018 that he started his journey in IPL after Kolkata Knight Riders signed him.
Shubman Gill left Kolkata Knight Riders and joined Gujarat Titans at the auction of 2022 IPL at a price tag of Rs. 8 crores. There was a huge rise in his pay as KKR took him in their team for Rs. 1.8 crores four years back in 2018. However, Shubman repaid the selectors' faith, who put their money on him, as he hit 483 runs and won the IPL. It was a major milestone in Shubman Gill's cricketing career, as it was his first IPL title. In the 2024 IPL, he was announced as the captain of Gujarat Titans.

Once, in an old interview with Gujarat Titans, Shahneel Gill opened up about their childhood memories with her brother, Shubman Gill. From revealing that Shubman was a naughty but fun kid, Shahneel admitted that she was completely opposite of her brother, as she was a shy kid. The doting sister also shared that when Shubman started going out for multiple cricket tournaments, she started feeling lonely. Recalling the old times, she said:
"I would say he was my best friend when we were kids. We would hangout all the time. And then he started going out for matches and being away from home, it was quite difficult because I had no other friends. We always had quite close relationship, because our age difference is nothing, only 2.5 years. When we were kids, I wasn't as friendly as I am now. I was shy kid and he was always a naughty one and the fun one."
