When it comes to batting on flat pitches, Shubman Gill is currently the best batsman in this modern era. On flat pitches this man is as dangerous as any other player who has played the game. Well played ๐ฏ. Give this man flat pitches to bat on and he will break every record of Sachin Tendulkar. pic.twitter.com/MDX00dDqom
