Indian batter Shubman Gill has broken a massive record of Pakistan skipper Babar Azam in the ODIs. The young Indian sensation now has the most runs after 26 innings, surpassing Babar’s tally of 1322 runs.
Shubman Gill achieved the feat in the recently concluded second ODI against West Indies after his 34-run knock at the Kensington Oval at Bridgetown in Barbados. The young batter has been exceptional in the 50-over format and has been scoring truckloads of runs for India at the top.
Shubman Gill played a vital hand for India in the second ODI as he gave a rollicking start to the team and stitched 90 runs partnership with Ishan Kishan (55). He didn’t get going in the first game and would be looking to set the stage on fire in the last and final game of the series.
Shubman Gill during his 34-run knock played some blistering strokes and smashed 5 fours during his innings. He looked good in his 49-ball stay at the crease and looked set for a big total but unfortunately got out while trying to hit a six. He now has 1352 runs in 26 ODIs, surpassing Babar Azam
