Shubman Gill-led Gujarat Titans (GT) will kick off their IPL 2025 campaign against Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the 4th match of the tournament. The game will take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Tuesday, March 25.

This will be GT’s first match of the season, and they will aim for a strong start to set the tone for the rest of the tournament. Both GT and Punjab Kings had a disappointing 2024 season, finishing in 8th and 9th place, respectively, missing out on the playoffs. With IPL celebrating its 18th edition, both teams will be eager to turn things around.

GT had a dream start in the IPL, winning the title in their debut season (2022) and finishing as runners-up in 2023. However, they struggled in 2024, finishing in 8th place. Now, under the leadership of Shubman Gill, they are looking for a comeback. So, as GT gears up for their IPL 2025 journey, Shubman Gill has a chance to reach some major milestones in his T20 career.

1. 4500 Runs in T20s

Shubman Gill currently has 4,471 runs in 142 T20 matches, with 6 centuries and 26 half-centuries to his name. He needs just 29 more runs to reach the 4,500-run milestone in T20 cricket.

2. 150 Sixes in T20s

The stylish right-hander has hit 143 sixes in T20 cricket. He needs just 7 more sixes to complete 150 sixes in this format. Given his current form, he has a good chance of achieving this record soon.

3. 100 Sixes in IPL

In the IPL, Gill has already smashed 95 sixes. He is just 5 sixes away from reaching the 100-sixes mark in the tournament.

4. 50 Catches in T20s

Along with his batting skills, Gill is also a dependable fielder. He has taken 47 catches in T20 cricket so far and needs just 3 more catches to reach 50 T20 catches.
