Naman Awards: Winning A World Cup In Any Format For The Country Is The Ultimate Goal, Says Shubman Gill
ODI World Cup: India Test and ODI captain Shubman Gill said winning the 2027 ODI World Cup in South Africa is the thought that runs through his mind at times, adding that winning the global trophy is still the ultimate goal for him. India had come close to winning the 2023 Men’s ODI World Cup, but finished runners-up to Australia.
With the next edition of the mega event coming up next year, all eyes will be on whether Gill will be able to lead the team to glory in South Africa, Zimbabwe, and Namibia. “Sometimes, definitely it does. I mean, that is the ultimate goal. I think we felt like we were so close last time when we were here in India.
“To be able to get another crack at it in South Africa, I think it's going to be a great opportunity for us. Winning a World Cup in any format for the country is the ultimate goal. So obviously that is something that sometimes runs in my mind,” said Gill in a panel discussion during the BCCI's Naman Awards in New Delhi on Sunday.
