Indian Premier League: India opener Shubman Gill believes the learnings he has received from playing under great leaders are going to help him a lot when he leads Gujarat Titans in the 2024 season of the Indian Premier League (IPL).

Gill was recently announced as captain of Gujarat, the IPL 2022 winning team, after his predecessor for the last two seasons, Hardik Pandya was traded back to five-time winners Mumbai Indians. Captaining Gujarat in IPL 2024 will be Gill’s first major assignment as a leader in senior men’s cricket.

"We all know captainship comes with a lot of things, and commitment is one of them. Discipline is one of them. Hard work is one of them. Loyalty is one of them. Because I've played under great leaders and have learned a lot from them, those learnings that I have had from their experience playing under them is gonna help me a lot in this IPL," said Gill in a video posted by the franchise on its social media accounts.
