In the show, Gill told that his nickname is Kaka, which he said means baby in Punjabi. Now there is no official information about whether Gill got the nickname Kaka after the name of Brazilian footballer Kaka or for some other reason.
How will Shubhaman Gill become a game changer?
Now that you know Shubman Gill's nickname, now know how this Indian batsman, who has his eyes set on Rs 12.50 lakh, can become a game changer for Team India in Asia Cup 2025. Even though Shubman Gill will be seen playing a T20 International match after July 2024 in Asia Cup, he will still be the strength of Team India's batting. The reason behind this is his batting technique and his ability to pace the innings according to his own wishes. Along with this, he is also adept at playing spin.
Asia Cup 2025 is being organized in UAE, where the pitches are suitable for spinners. The batsman whose bat is currently the strongest in white ball cricket on such pitches is Shubman Gill. In such a situation, he can become the trump card of Team India.
Eyes will also be on Rs 12.50 lakh
On the strength of his batting, Shubman Gill has the power to make Team India the champion for the 9th time. While doing this, obviously runs will also come from his bat. In realizing the mission of making India the champion, if he becomes the highest run scorer in the tournament and in return wins the Player of the Series, then he will get Rs 12.50 lakh as a reward.
Shubman Gill in form
The good thing is that Shubman Gill is in great form right now, no matter what the format is. He scored the most runs in the Test series on the England tour, 700 plus. So in the IPL played this year, he scored 650 runs in 15 matches at an average of 50 and a strike rate of more than 155. Now it remains to be seen how Shubman Gill, i.e. Kaka of Team India, lives up to the expectations in Asia Cup 2025.
