"Touchdown."

Shubman Gill and Suryakumar Yadav were in excellent form during the IPL 2023 season

Shubman Gill and Suryakumar Yadav played a pivotal role in their respective team's success during the IPL 2023 season. Gujarat Titans topped the points table and then finished runners-up in the tournament. Gill won the Orange Cap, Most Valuable Player, and Game-changer of the Season award for his magnificent batting performances.

As far as his numbers in IPL 2023 are concerned, Gill aggregated 890 runs in 17 matches with three centuries and four half-centuries for the Gujarat Titans. The 23-year-old would be disappointed not to have won the IPL trophy.

Yadav, meanwhile, scored 605 runs in 16 matches and was the highest run-getter for the Mumbai Indians. The right-handed batter recorded one ton and five fifties for his team, and batted at a strike rate of 181.13.

It will be interesting to see how Suryakumar Yadav and Shubman Gill perform in the upcoming ICC World Test Championship Final.
