"Shubman Gill isn't a big hitter"- Ricky Ponting deliver cold-blooded verdict

Shubman Gill has been in sublime form with the bat as he smashed a stunning century to help India beat Bangladesh by six wickets in their first match at the ongoing ICC Champions Trophy 2025 at Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai on February 20.

India’s ODI vice-captain hammered his second consecutive century, and this time, his unbeaten ton came while chasing 229 runs against the Tigers in Dubai. During his match-winning knock, Gill hit nine boundaries and two sixes to strengthen his top position in his ICC ODI rankings.

Ricky Ponting hails Shubman Gill’s brilliance after a spectacular century against Bangladesh

After his remarkable century, the former Australian captain Ricky Ponting has showered rich praise on Shubman Gill. He believes that Gill’s recent rise in the ICC rankings and Dubai hundred are a clear reflection of his dominance in white-ball cricket.

Ricky Ponting said on The ICC Review podcast, “He thoroughly deserves to be the number one ranked batsman in the world at the moment, and it’s a great sign for India that he’s got his account underway early in the first game of a Champions Trophy.”

White ball game really suits Shubman Gill’s style of play: Ricky Ponting

The legendary cricketer admitted that Test cricket hasn’t brought out his best yet, but Gill’s white-ball game has been nothing short of exceptional over the years. His ability to handle pace and find boundaries effortlessly, his maturity, and his confidence are just unbelievable.

Ponting further explained, “He’s been a very, very good international player for a number of years. He hasn’t sort of transferred that over into Test Match cricket yet, but his white-ball cricket over the last three or four years has been outstanding. Look, he’s a big game player as well. I just think that the white ball game really suits his style of play.”

Ricky Ponting says Shubman Gill is a ‘really softly spoken guy’

The cricket experts further highlighted the 25-year-old batter’s ability to take advantage of the powerplay in ODI cricket. Ponting noted that Gill can start aggressively with the field up, finding boundaries early with his natural stroke play and attacking approach.
