As Shubman Gill leads India in the upcoming ODI series against Australia, all eyes are on whether he can achieve what only Sachin Tendulkar did decades ago
Sachin Tendulkar is the only Indian to score a century on ODI captaincy debut, smashing 110 runs vs Sri Lanka in 1996
If Shubman Gill scores a century in his first ODI as captain, he’ll join Tendulkar in this elite list, a record untouched for nearly 30 years
Gill scored a century on his Test captaincy debut vs England, showing calmness and leadership promise across formats
Gill’s ODI captaincy debut comes vs Australia on October 19 in Perth, with Rohit and Kohli adding experience to his youthful leadership
Both Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli scored just two runs on their ODI captaincy debuts vs Sri Lanka, can Gill break the trend with a century?
