LPI 2023: Gujarat Titans team is facing Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2023 final. Gujarat opening batsman Shubman Gill performed amazingly in this whole season. It looked like Gill would break all the IPL records in a single season. But despite this, Gill was unable to break the three big records of veteran RCB batsman Virat Kohli.
Kohli’s super record saved
Shubman Gill came off after scoring 39 runs in the final against CSK. With this, Gill finished the season with 890 runs. Gill not only missed the 900 mark, but also missed breaking Kohli’s record for most runs in IPL. Kohli had given away 973 runs in IPL 2016. Though Gill has reached the second number on the list of most run scoring batsmen in a single IPL season.
Record of centuries saved
Not only this, Kohli’s record of most centuries was also saved from Gill. Gill had scored a total of three centuries this season. But Virat reached a total of 4 centuries in IPL 2016. Apart from Kohli, Rajasthan’s star opener Jos Buttler also reached 4 centuries in IPL 2022.
This record also survived
Other than this, Gill couldn’t even break Kohli’s record for hitting the most caps in a single season. Virat had reached 122 caps in IPL 2016. But Gill was only able to reach 118 caps this season. The list is headed by Jos Buttler, who hit 128 caps in IPL 2022. At the same time, David Warner is at number three, who has hit 119 caps in a single season.
