Gill, who is usually a person of calm demeanour had a rather uncharacteristic celebration.
During the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL 2024) match between Gujarat Titans (GT) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK), GT skipper Shubman Gill gave a testament to his sheer batting prowess by slamming the 100th ton in IPL history.
Gill, who is usually a person of calm demeanour had a rather uncharacteristic celebration after reaching the three-figure landmark.
Gill dispatched a Simranjeet Singh full toss delivery from the outside off, shuffling across the crease as he whipped it straight towards the deep backward square leg for a stunning boundary.
Gill had a fiery celebration, fist bumping and jumping in the air as he yelled ‘F**k off’.
For the unversed, Shubman Gill was recently snubbed from India’s 15-man squad for the upcoming 2024 T20 World Cup, slated to be held in June in West Indies and USA. However, he has been included as a travelling reserve in the side.
