Since the under-19 World Cup win in 2018, Shubman Gill has shaped himself as the future of Indian cricket, and Yuvraj Singh played a mentor’s role in his career. While Yuvi has often praised Gill, the Indian Test skipper has always acknowledged the former star’s guidance in shaping his career.

As Gill is celebrating his birthday, Yuvraj Singh penned down a heartfelt note. Along with birthday wishes, the former Indian all-rounder wished him the best for the upcoming Asia Cup.

After retiring from international cricket, Yuvraj Singh is still contributing to Indian cricket, and Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma are the best examples of that. Being from Punjab, both batters stormed into the Indian team and became strong pillars of the side. But Shubman Gill touched a whole different height with determination and hard work.

From lifting the Under-19 World Cup in 2018 to taking over India’s Test captaincy after Rohit Sharma’s retirement, Shubman Gill has grown into a true leader, shining brilliantly across the formats. As the Indian Test skipper is celebrating his 26th birthday, his mentor and former Indian star Yuvraj Singh shared a heartfelt note to wish him on his special day.

“Wishing you a very Happy Birthday, Gill saab. Here’s to another year of smashing it around the park and raising the bar even higher,” he wrote.
