It is remarkable that with this 2000 runs, Gill became the 2nd fastest player to score 2000 runs in IPL. Moreover, Gill has surpassed Sanju Samson and Virat Kohli, who have achieved this feat as young players. Rishabh Pant is at the top of this list.

Recently, Shubman Gill completed 2000 runs at the age of 23 years and 214 days in the match on Sunday. With this, Gill became the second player to score 2000 runs in IPL after Rishabh Pant.
But earlier, Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson was in the second position. Sanju Samson was the second player to score 2000 IPL runs at the age of 24 years and 140 days. But now that place is owned by Gill.
Also next to Samson is King Virat Kohli. Virat scored 2000 IPL runs at the age of 24 years and 175 days. Before Gill scored 2000 runs, Kohli, who was the third youngest player to achieve this feat in the IPL, has now moved down to the fourth position.
Shubman Gill, who played for KKR and Gujarat Titans in the IPL, scored 200 runs in 74 innings. It is remarkable that 15 half-centuries came from his bat in this sequence.
