'There's potential and then there is Gill': Cricket world bows down to 'superstar' Shubman

Gujarat Titans batsman Shubman Gill on Monday took the IPL by storm as he smashed his maiden century of the tournament against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Shubman scored a magnificent 101 off just 58 balls including 13 boundaries and one six to help his team post a mammoth total on the board. Shubman started his innings by hitting a 23-ball half-century, which came without smashing a single six. He scored four consecutive boundaries off Fazalhaq Farooqi's bowling in the powerplay. 

Netizens are lauding the 23-year-old for his sublime knock against SRH. Several members of the cricket fraternity took to social media to heap massive praise on Shubman, who has already scored 576 runs in 13 matches and is currently the second-highest run-getter of IPL 2023. Shubman has four half-centuries to his name apart from the one hundred he scored against SRH on Monday. Here's a compilation of tweets lauding Shubman for his fantastic knock.
