Shubman Gill's Leadership Record Across All Cricket Formats

Shubman Gill has quickly become a prominent leader in Indian cricket. Since taking over as Test captain in 2025, he has delivered some remarkable performances. These include leveling the series in England and clinching Test wins against West Indies, Afghanistan, and Sri Lanka.

India’s 165-run win in the first Test of the two-match series against Sri Lanka in Galle improved his Test captaincy record to six wins out of ten matches. However, the second Test ended in a draw after Sri Lanka’s resilient batting on Day 5 prevented a clean sweep. This affected Gill’s winning percentage as captain.

At just 26 years old, Gill has led India across Tests, ODIs, T20Is, and the IPL. He has also been leading the Gujarat Titans since IPL 2024, steering them to playoff appearances in both 2025 and 2026.

T20I Captaincy Record

Gill debuted as India’s T20I captain during the 2024 series against Zimbabwe. In five matches, he secured four wins and suffered one loss.

  • Matches Captained: 5
  • Wins: 4
  • Losses: 1
  • No Result/Tied: 0
  • Win Percentage: 80.00%

IPL Captaincy Record

Replaced Hardik Pandya as captain of the Gujarat Titans in IPL 2024, Gill has led the team through 43 matches over two seasons. His side won 24 matches, lost 17, with no matches ending without result or tie.

  • Matches Captained: 43
  • Wins: 24
  • Losses: 17
  • No Result/Tied: 0
  • Win Percentage: 55.81%

ODI Captaincy Record

Gill began captaining the ODI team in October 2025 against Australia but faced early setbacks, losing the series 2-1. After a brief absence due to injury and KL Rahul stepping in, Gill returned for the home series against New Zealand in January 2026, which India also lost 2-1. He achieved his first ODI series win at home against Afghanistan in June 2026, winning all three matches. During the July 2026 series versus England, India won the first match but lost the next two, conceding the series.

  • Matches Captained: 12
  • Wins: 7
  • Losses: 5
  • No Result/Tied: 0
  • Win Percentage: 58.3%

Test Captaincy Record

Appointed as Test captain before the 2025 England tour following Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli’s retirements from Tests, Gill guided India to a 2-2 series draw there. He then earned his first series victory as Test captain against the West Indies at home. Subsequent away wins included a series triumph against Afghanistan in June 2026 and strong performances in the two-Test series versus Sri Lanka.

The Galle Test showcased India’s dominance: scoring 462 in the first innings, bowling Sri Lanka out for 284, declaring at 193/9 to set a target of 372, and finally bowling Sri Lanka out for 206 to secure a 165-run victory. This marked Gill’s sixth win in 10 Tests as captain, boosting his win rate to 60%. The ongoing series lead stands at 1-0. However, a draw in Colombo later reduced his overall winning percentage.

  • Matches Captained: 11
  • Wins: 6
  • Losses: 3
  • No Result/Tied: 2
  • Win Percentage: 54.55%
