Shubman Gill Chills With Puppies In Gym Amid World Cup Struggles

The World Cup 2023 has witnessed unexpected turns for many, and Shubman Gill is no exception. The burgeoning star of Indian cricket, Gill was expected to light up the stage with his powerful batting. However, an unfortunate bout of dengue sidelined him early on, dampening his World Cup ambitions.

Since his return, Gill's performance has been below his usual standard. The statistics illustrate a subdued presence; 104 runs in four matches, an average of 26.00, and a strike rate of 94.55. While he has scored a half-century, it falls short of the fiery displays expected from him, especially given his outstanding form leading up to the World Cup.

But if you think this lean patch has brought down Gill's spirits, you'd be mistaken. Taking a break from the cricketing action, the young batter shared a cheerful glimpse into his off-the-field life.

On Tuesday, Gill took to Instagram, sharing images of himself in a gym setting. But what stole the show wasn't his workout routine; it was the delightful company he had – an array of adorable puppies.

"Gym buddies for today," Gill captioned the heartwarming photos, in which he's seen playfully engaging with the dogs.


The sporting world is well aware of the ups and downs that come with it. And while the form is temporary, class, as they say, is permanent. Gill's dedication is evident not only from his cheerful posts but also from his rigorous training sessions.

With India's seventh match of the tournament looming on Thursday, November 2, against Sri Lanka at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium, Gill is prepping hard. Riding high on a winning streak with six consecutive victories, India is on the cusp of confirming their spot in the top four.

The match against Sri Lanka provides Gill an excellent opportunity to reclaim his touch as the knockouts beckon. With the entire nation cheering, hopes are pinned on Gill to unleash his brilliance and steer India closer to World Cup glory.
