Shubman Gill, the star Indian batter, stands out as one of the finest in the cricketing world today. At just 24 years old, Gill has already established himself as one of the most promising talents in international cricket, leaving even the most skilled bowlers in awe of his performances.

Gill's exceptional display in the recently concluded Asia Cup 2023 is a testament to his prowess. He amassed an impressive total of 302 runs, boasting a staggering average of 75.50. His remarkable contributions played a pivotal role in India's triumph in the Asia Cup. Moreover, his outstanding performances propelled him to claim the second spot in the ICC ODI batter rankings.

Currently, Gill holds the second position with a rating of 814. It is worth noting that he trails behind the Pakistan skipper, Babar Azam, who sits comfortably in first place with a rating of 857. However, Gill has a golden opportunity to ascend to the top spot if he unleashes his full potential against Australia in the upcoming three-match ODI series, commencing on Friday, September 22.

To surpass Babar, Gill must accumulate 200 runs, securing the coveted position in the ICC ODI batter rankings. The young prodigy is eager to contribute significantly to his team's success against Australia.

The ODI series between Team India and Australia will commence at the Inderjit Singh Bindra Stadium in Mohali on September 22. Both teams are hopeful that this three-match encounter will serve as valuable preparation for the upcoming ODI World Cup 2023, set to begin on October 5.

Notably, India and Australia will face each other in their opening World Cup match at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on October 8. The preceding ODI series will provide both sides with valuable insights into the strategies and tactics that could be employed when they clash in the World Cup.
