Before the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 match between the Gujarat Titans (GT) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Monday, April 21, at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata, commentator Danny Morrison made fun of Shubman Gill. When the Knight Riders won the toss and decided to field first, Morrison asked with a smile, “You're looking good, wedding bells around the corner? Getting married soon?” Gill changed his position, apparently uncomfortable with the unexpected personal question. Gill, taken aback for a moment, appeared a little uncomfortable but smiled and quickly brushed it off. He laughed uneasily and answered, "No, nothing like that."
The audience laughed at the humorous moment, which also gave the pre-game teasing some flair.

With two fifties and a top score of 61 not out to his name, Gill has amassed 215 runs from seven games at an average of 35.83 and a strike-rate of 149.30. He has had a respectable batting campaign thus far. The Titans have won five of their last seven games, putting them atop the table with 10 points and a net run rate of +0.984. After defeating the Delhi Capitals (DC) by seven wickets in their most recent match on April 19 at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium, they are playing well.
