With an average of 59.33 and a strike rate of 157.80, including three centuries and four half-centuries, Gill surpassed Jos Buttler’s 2022 record of 863 runs. The highest single-season record remains with Virat Kohli, who scored 973 runs in the 2016 season.

The highlight of the innings was Sai Sudharsan’s breathtaking knock of 96 off just 47 balls, supported by Wriddhiman Saha’s well-crafted 54 off 39 deliveries. Matheesha Pathirana was the standout bowler for the opposition, claiming two wickets for 44 runs in his four overs.
