Virat Kohli number one, Shubman Gill reached second place

Virat Kohli is the youngest batsman to score the highest run as captain in a season of IPL. In 2013, Virat Kohli became the captain of RCB for the first time. Then he scored 634 runs for his team. When he completed 500 runs as captain, he was 24 years and 186 days old. Now this year, Shubman Gill has also crossed the 500 -run mark in the IPL as captain. When he touched this figure, he was 25 years old and 240 days old.

Shreyas Iyer slipped at number three

Shreyas Iyer scored 519 runs in the 2020 IPL, captaining Delhi Capitals. When Shreyas completed 500 runs, he was 25 years old and 341 days old. That is, Shubman Gill has now reached the second number, he has left Shreyas Iyer behind. In 2015 too, Virat Kohli was the captain of RCB, when he captained 500 runs in 26 years and 199 days. That is, Kohli is occupied at number one and fourth. At number two is Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer on the third.

Shubman Gill can score the most runs this year as captain

Shubman Gill has just scored 500 runs. They can also score the most runs this time. That is, they have a chance to do the Orange Cap in their name. Although this work is not so easy. He is getting a competition with Suryakumar Yadav, Sai Sudarshan and Virat Kohli. But it can be so much that he scored the most runs in this year’s IPL as captain. Right now the team has many matches left and if Shubman’s bat goes in it, then they can do this work very easily. There is no major challenge before him in this matter.
