Former India cricket team batter Aakash Chopra has drawn a parallel between Shubman Gill and former skippers Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni. Chopra compared the youngster to the legends in terms of understanding the pulse of the game.

Shubman Gill = MS Dhoni & Virat Kohli?
Speaking on a podcast with Raj Shamani, Chopra opined that Gill understood the pulse of the game very well, similar to how MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli did.
“The biggest quality of Shubman is that he understands the pulse of the game. Some players are very quick to understand. Some understand eventually. Some never understand. So, the greats you see, they understand very quickly. So, Virat Kohli understood the pulse of the game very quickly. Mahendra Singh Dhoni understood the pulse of batting in ODIs very quickly,” said Aakash in a podcast with Raj Shamani.
