Shubman Gill has been with KKR since 2018, as he made progress with the bat, he was included in the core leadership group last year. During India’s tour to Australia, he made some useful contributions with the bat. He scored a brilliant 91 during the final Test at the Gabba to set up a perfect platform for the middle order. 

But, since then, Gill has been out of form. He gave a flop show during the home series against England and in the current season, he failed too. In 7 games, Gill score 132 runs with a poor average of 18.25. If we consider the strike rate, it makes Gill look like a stat padder. 

A strike rate of 117.25 in seven games while the opening is a bad record. KKR is a dangerous team if they get perfect starts. But, after they demoted Sunil Narine, things went haywire. Maybe, when IPL resumes, Gill will find his touch and KKR will improve their record during the latter half of the tournament.
