The GT skipper managed to score an unbeaten fifty in their last match against Delhi Capitals (DC). He scored 59* runs off 53 balls but it was not enough to chase down the target of 131 runs. Hence, fans were not happy with the pace he batted during that chase. As of now, he has enjoyed a decent season so far.

Shubman Gill's IPL Records and Stats

This youngster set the fire in the international arena before this IPL for Team India. He managed to score centuries across all three formats along with a double century in ODIs. But, in IPL 2023 so far, Gill has not managed to pull off that blistering form in a consistent manner. Shubman Gill has scored 339 runs in nine matches, at an average of 37.66.

He has scored three fifties so far. But, sometimes, fans were not happy with his overall strike rate. Hence, he is expected to score big runs against RR in this next match. Meanwhile, in the last match against DC, Gill failed to give a solid start. Currently, he is in the sixth spot in the race for the Orange Cap this year.
