The 16th edition of the Indian Premier League is approaching its end and we have the top two teams, Chennai Super Kings and Gujarat Titans, ready for their final battle on May 28, Sunday. The famous cash-rich league has been a stepping-stone for youngsters, out of whom several have become some of the biggest names in the cricketing world. One such name is the opening batter of the reigning champions, Gujarat Titans, Shubman Gill. The 24-year-old had an explosive season of the famous T20I league, where he smashed three tons. As he is set to play yet another explosive inning for his side in the final summit, former India great and current Mumbai Indians mentor Sachin Tendulkar hailed him for a brilliant season. 

Taking it to Twitter, the legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar flowered praise on the leading run scorer of IPL 2023. He wrote, “Shubman Gill's performance this season has been nothing short of unforgettable, marked by two centuries that left an indelible impact. One century ignited @ mipaltan's hopes, while the other dealt them a crushing blow. Such is the unpredictable nature of cricket!” “What truly impressed me about Shubman's batting was his remarkable temperament, unwavering calmness, hunger for runs and astute running between the wickets,” he added. 

In the usual joke, fans reacted to the long post, teasing with the Shubman Gill-Sara Tendulkar dating rumours. Here are some of the most hilarious reactions. 

Furthermore, he also named Hardik Pandya and David Miller as other two batters who will be critical for the reigning champions in the summit clash against the reigning champions in Ahmedabad. In this season, Gill has scored a total of 851 runs with a combination of four half centuries and three hundreds.
