“In Test cricket, he can surely go past 400”: Brian Lara picks Shubman Gill for breaking his records.

Shubman Gill, despite having participated in just 73 international games across three formats for India, has already captivated the cricketing world with his exceptional talent.

Regarded highly by numerous former cricketers, the latest to join the chorus of praise is legendary West Indies batsman Brian Lara. Lara envisions a promising future for the young talent, hailing Gill as the most skilled batter among the current generation of players in international cricket. Additionally, Lara has expressed confidence in Gill’s ability to surpass his records for the highest individual scores in both first-class cricket (501 not out) and Test cricket (400 not out).

Lara said “Shubman Gill can break both my records. Gill is the most talented batter in this new generation. He will rule cricket in the coming years. I believe he will go on to break many big records. He (Gill) can do it (break my records). If Gill plays County cricket then he can break my 501*. In Test cricket, he can surely go past 400.”

“Shubman will score big, mark my words. Gill didn’t score a century (in the World Cup) but look at the knocks he has already played. He has centuries in all formats, has smashed a double hundred in ODIs and has also played many match-winnings in the IPL. I’m sure he will win many ICC tournaments in the future,” added Lara.
