IPL 2020: Sunil Gavaskar Reveals Name of India's BIG STAR in The Future   

As IPL teams are preparing for their upcoming matches, former Indian captain Sunil Gavaskar believes that Kolkata Knight Riders’ (KKR) batsman Shubman Gill could be a big star for India in the future. 

Gavaskar’s big statement comes just days before KKR could play their first game in the ongoing season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) against Mumbai Indians (MI).

Recently while speaking in an interview with Sports Tak, Gavaskar said that KKR should support Gill and put him in every game this season. “If KKR shows enough confidence in Shubman Gill and if you tell him that he will play every game and will open in every game, then he can show his potential,” said Gavaskar.

“He has such class that if you ask any Indian cricketer who is the next star, everyone will say Shubman Gill. So this is a great opportunity for him to show why he can go on and become a big star for India,” Gavaskar added. 

Further supporting the team, the former Indian batsman stated that KKR have the players to win the IPL this year. "KKR certainly have the players and also have a potent bowling attack. This team can prove to be really dangerous and can win IPL 2020. Even in 2014, when the first leg of the tournament was played in the UAE, KKR went on to win the tournament,” he said.

“Even this time around, they have a very balanced team and also have a lot of experience. Sunil Narine has just come off a winning campaign with the Trinbago Knight Riders in the CPL. Thus there will be confidence in the side and they can be a really dangerous team,” he finally asserted.
