Prediction about Shubhaman Gill came true! This big announcement was made a year ago; Veteran's post went viral

Shubman Gill: Shubman Gill has created many records by scoring a double century in the first innings of the Birmingham Test. A big prediction was made about Gill a year ago.

Shubman Gill Double Century: Indian cricket has got a new 'superstar', whose name is Shubman Gill. Gill has started making records after records as soon as he became the captain of the Indian Test team. He scored a century in the first Test of the series and now he has scored a double century (Shubman Gill Double Century) in the second Test. Actually, before the series against England, Gill's Test record was nothing special, but his becoming a great player was predicted a year ago.

It was predicted a year ago

England's legendary player Kevin Pietersen has shared a picture of one of his old tweets. In this post made in February 2024, Pietersen had claimed that if Gill is given some time, he will emerge as a great player. Pietersen wrote in his old tweet, "Jacques Kallis had an average of just 22 in the first 10 Test matches, but later he became one of the greatest players in cricket history. Give Shubman Gill some time to discover his greatness."
