IPL 2018: The debutants XI 

#3 Shubman Gill

Gill idolizes Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli

The 'Man of the tournament' in recently concluded ICC U-19 World Cup, Shubman Gill was signed by Kolkata Knight Riders for ₹1.8 crores to join his WC-winning team-mates Shivam Mavi and Kamlesh Nagarkoti.

KKR looks slightly thin on batting, lacking experienced Indian batsmen, barring the wicket-keeping duo of Robin Uthappa and Dinesh Karthik. Hence, it gives an opportunity to the youngster to build his stature at a very young age.
