Shubman Gill made history in the IPL by becoming the youngest player to reach 4000 runs. Achieving this feat at 26 years and 216 days during Gujarat Titans’ IPL 2026 match against Lucknow Super Giants on April 12 at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow, Gill surpassed Virat Kohli’s record set in 2016 at 27 years and 195 days for the fastest to 4000 runs in IPL history. Gill’s impressive performance included a well-constructed innings of 56 runs off 40 balls with six boundaries and a maximum, guiding Gujarat Titans to a seven-wicket victory over Lucknow Super Giants. Partnering with Jos Buttler, Gill formed a crucial 84-run stand for the second wicket, demonstrating a blend of caution and aggression. Despite his dismissal by Prince Yadav after a quick bouncer, Gill’s knock set a solid foundation for the team’s success. The Titans, now fifth in the IPL table with a net run rate of -0.029, are set to face the Kolkata Knight Riders on April 17 at the Narendra Modi Stadium to capitalize on their recent momentum.
