Former PCB chairman Ramiz Raja made a stunning Rohit Sharma comparison statement on Shubman Gill, recalling his record double century in the 1st ODI against New Zealand.
Team India scripted a remarkable series win against New Zealand with an emphatic eight-wicket win in Raipur on Saturday.
On Wednesday, in the 1st ODI, Gill scored an impactful double century and became the fifth India batter to score a double century in ODIs and the youngest ever to the feat.

Speaking on his YouTube channel, Raja recalled the double ton and hailed Gill as “mini Rohit Sharma”. He further added that Gill needs to change nothing in his game.
“Shubman Gill looks like a mini-Rohit Sharma. He has extra time and looks good. He has enough potential. Aggression will also develop with time. He doesn’t need to change anything. He scored a double hundred recently,” said Raja.
Ramiz Raja also praised Team India skipper Rohit Sharma who scored a brilliant half-century in the 2nd ODI.
“Batting was easy for India because they have an outstanding batter like Rohit Sharma. He plays exceedingly well. He is an amazing striker of hook-and-pull shots, so a 108-run chase becomes easy,” Raja added.
