The Gujarat Titans and Shubman Gill had an unusual exchange of tweets on Saturday, September 16, much to the confusion of fans. The IPL: 2022 wished Gill “All the best” for next “endeavour” to which the star batter responded.

"It’s been a journey to remember. We wish you all the best for your next endeavour, @ShubmanGill!," said Titans in a tweet. The star batter was quick to respond with a couple of emojis.

Gill was a key member of the Titans’ IPL 2022 triumph in their maiden season of participation under Hardik Pandya, aggregating 483 runs at 34.50 and a strike-rate of 132.33, registering four fifties in an impressive campaign. He scored an unbeaten 45 off 43, including a winning six in the final against the Rajasthan Royals at the Narendra Modi International Stadium in Ahmedabad. 

Gill had been a key member for the Kolkata Knight Riders since being first picked up in 2018, shortly after he had starred in India U19’s World Cup winning campaign in New Zealand. He was named as the Emerging Player of the Season a year later, and in 2021, formed a formidable opening pair with Venkatesh Iyer in the team’s inspiring run to the final, wherein theu had gone down to the Chennai Super Kings.

However, to many’s surprise, Gill did not feature in KKR's retention list ahead of the 2022 IPL mega auction, and was eventually picked by the Titans in the pre-auction draft for a fee of INR 8 crores, alongside Hardik Pandya and Rashid Khan.

Gill has been in great ODI form of late, having registered scores of 64, 43 and 98* in the West Indies and 82*, 33 and 130 in Zimbabwe recently.
