Shubman Gill continued his good form in IPL 2025, with yet another half-century on Monday. Facing his former side, Kolkata Knight Riders, the Gujarat Titans skipper slammed a fine fifty to lead his side’s charge. It was his first 50 against his former side in IPL, having traded Eden Gardens for a move to Ahmedabad in 2022.
Gill slams 50 vs KKR on Eden Gardens homecoming
A teenage Shubman Gill began his IPL career in Eden Gardens, but now returns as the captain of the Gujarat Titans. Gill led from the front taking down the KKR attack with partner Sai Sudharsan at the top of the order. The 25-year-old initially took his time to settle in, before crunching consecutive boundaries off Harshit Rana to get going.
The Titans skipper did not take much risk and was content playing out a steady hand as the visitors only managed 45/0 in the powerplay. However, he soon turned gears, taking on Moeen Ali. Gill stepped out to the English all-rounder and smashed him over mid-wicket for a maximum. He followed it up with a slice down to third man, before playing the sweep to pick up another boundary.
