Shubman Gill is the best batsman currently in this modern era when it comes to batting on flat pitches. On flat courts, this guy is as dangerous as anyone who plays this game. Well played 💯. Give this guy flat throws of the bat and he will break all the records set by Sachin Tendulkar. pic.twitter.com/MDX00dDqom
