India vice-captain Shubman Gill arrives in Mumbai after lifting ICC Champions Trophy title. India defeated New Zealand by four wickets in the final on Sunday to claim the third title in the eight-team tournament. Gill’s first ICC title after missing the opportunity to get the hands-on experience of the silverware in last year’s T20 World Cup in Barbados. India became the most successful team in the Champions Trophy, surpassing Australia’s feat of two titles. The 25-year-old opener accumulated 188 runs in five matches, including an unbeaten century against Bangladesh in the opening match. He also played a crucial knock of 46 runs, along with Virat Kohli (100 not out), against arch-rivals Pakistan in India’s six-wicket win. After Sunday’s match, Gill expressed his excitement about conquering the final obstacle this time following their runners-up finish in the 2023 ODI World Cup. \”Felt amazing, for the most part. I was sitting back and enjoying Rohit bhai’s batting. We kept talking to each other, and the partnership was very important for us,\” he said after the summit clash.
