India’s Test and ODI captain Shubman Gill made his much-awaited debut in the ongoing Sher-E-Punjab T20 League 2026 on Sunday (September 6) for Fazilka Falcons against Ludhiana Lions at the Punjab Cricket Association IS Bindra Stadium in Mohali. The 26-year-old right-handed batter from Fazilka scored 40 runs off just 21 balls as an opening batter, batting at a strike rate of 190.48 and smashed seven fours and one six during his stay at the crease.
Gill hammered his India teammate Arshdeep Singh for a couple of fours in his second over of the match and then hit two back-to-back fours off Mumbai Indians star Krish Bhagat’s bowling as well.
