NEW DELHI: Former Indian player Yuvraj Singh lavished praise on his ward Shubman Gill saying the young batter is very hardworking and can do wonders in the next 10 years.
The young Shubman honed his skills under the watchful eyes of Yuvraj alongside current Punjab skipper and Sunrisers Hyderabad all rounder Abhishek Sharma during the Covid-19 lockdown in 2020.
“Shubman is very hardworking and is doing all the right things. I believe he is destined for greatness in the next 10 years,” Yuvraj said.
The World Cup winner Yuvraj also feels the highly rated Shubman is a strong contender to open for India in the 2023 ODI World Cup at home.
Gill is not a part of the ODI series in Bangladesh but was part of the second string India squad in New Zealand.
“I think Shubman is doing very well and is performing consistently. I believe he is a strong contender to open for India in the 2023 World Cup,” Yuvraj replied to a PTI query on the sidelines of the inauguration of the T20 World Cup for the visually impaired.
Yuvraj declined to comment on India’s show in the T20 World Cup or the sacking of national selectors.
On a different note, Yuvraj said that he is open to work as a sports/cricket administrator.
“I can’t say what will happen in future but if I can help in the growth of sports in the country, I wouldn’t mind. But it is not just cricket but I will like to help in the growth of sports in this country,” said the hero of 2007 and 2011 global triumphs.
