At the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur, Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill broke yet another record after his knock against the Rajasthan Royals. Gill is still leading the team at the bat. In the Indian Premier League, the leadoff hitter defeated none other than Virat Kohli to become the youngest player to reach the 3,000-run mark.
Gill broke the record by becoming the youngest player to reach the 3000 IPL runs milestone at the age of 24 years and 215 days, surpassing players like as Virat Kohli and Sanju Samson.
The captain of the Titans is now the fourth-fastest player in tournament history to reach 3,000 runs. He moves up to the fourth rank in the milestone, joining two IPL legends, David Warner and Faf du Plessis.
