Kapil Dev gives advice to star batter Shubman Gill. “He definitely has the talent and ability, but he needs more maturity,” remarked Kapil Dev.
If the 16th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 accomplished anything. It was to establish 23-year-old Shubman Gill as one of the top young batters in the world.

He believes Gill is following in the footsteps of many great players. But he needs another year to establish himself as a truly outstanding talent.
“Sunil Gavaskar came, Sachin Tendulkar came, then Rahul Dravid, VVS Laxman, Virender Sehwag. Virat Kohli came, and now it appears that Shubman Gill is following in their footsteps. ” But, before making any bold pronouncements, I’d prefer to give him another season. He has the talent and ability, but he needs to mature further,” Kapil Dev told ABP News.
“If he has another season like this, there is no doubt that he will be on the list of great players.” But I don’t think I’d want to put him in that league right now. Maybe he should give it another year. “It’s too soon to say,” he continued.
Gujarat Titans reached their second IPL final in two years because to Gill’s outstanding efforts; however, they were unable to go all the way as Chennai Super Kings delivered them a heavy defeat and won their fifth IPL title after defeating them in the final by five wickets.
