A fascinating conversation between Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma threw light on the relationship between the top batsmen of the Indian cricket team. Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill came face to face with each other for a brief conversation during the BCCI Naman Awards ceremony.
Indian cricket fans know that these two batsmen from Punjab are very close to each other. Whenever they shared the same dressing room, field or team bus, the paparazzi got their moment. Like many times before, Gill and Sharma shared a very insightful conversation during the interview, which has now gone viral on the social media platform.
Funny conversation between Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill
The fun conversation started with a very simple question that could be answered in just one word. But if the person standing in front is the best friend of the team, things are different.
The presenter asked Gill if Sharma had sought his advice after getting out for three consecutive ducks in the recently concluded T20 World Cup 2026. Abhishek Sharma had a very poor performance during the tournament as he managed to get out for three consecutive ducks in the group stage.
Who will advise Team India captain Gill, the world No. 1 T20I batsman, for the Test and ODI formats? “Who would advise the world No. 1 T20I batsman?”. Shubman Gill said.
These types of comments can only be made if the person next to you is a very close friend of yours. As Gill initiated the conversation in a teasing manner, and that too in public, it is easy to assume that Abhishek Sharma, who loves to hit the ball all over the park, did not hold back.
Sharma jokingly claimed that he had messaged Shubman first
Following Gill’s comment, Sharma replied, “Maine hi message kiya tha isko 3 duck ke baad ke mujhe bat de de de, ise pehle koi aur record ban jaaye” (I was the one who messaged him after the three ducks and told him to give me his bat, otherwise another unwanted record would have been made).”
When the presenter asked Shubman if he gave any advice to Abhishek Sharma before the T20I WC-
SG- Who will advise the world’s No. 1 T20I batsman
AS- I was the one who messaged SG to give me the bat after 3 ducks, so that some other record can be made before this. He said that you will do it… pic.twitter.com/5zMiFpMism

While most batsmen prefer not to talk about bad days on the pitch, Sharma was jokingly talking about his hat-trick of ducks, which is common among friends. As soon as the video was shared on social media platforms, cricket fans thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere of sacred friendship.
Abhishek did not forget to share what Shubman said to him in response when he asked him for his bat. Sharma further said, “Usne bola tha, tu kar lega” (He told me, you will handle it).
Shubman Gill makes the conversation more entertaining with his finishing touch
It was a small line, but it was enough to show how much trust and comfort they had for each other.
As the conversation shifted from runs to the bat, the presenter asked, “Who do you think has the best bat?” To Abhishek Sharma. He replied casually, “Shubman ka hi” (Of course, Shubman’s only)”.
What Shubman said in response made the entire conversation more interesting. “Woh mere balle se hi khelta hai hamesha (He plays with my bat all the time anyway),” said Shubman Gill.
