Shubman Gill Breaks Silence on Dating Rumors

In the past, there have been rumors linking him to Sachin Tendulkar’s daughter, Sara Tendulkar, and Bollywood actress Sara Ali Khan. During the toss before the IPL 2025 match against KKR, former New Zealand cricketer and commentator Danny Morrison jokingly asked Gill about when he’s getting married.

Shubman Gill told The Hollywood Reporter India that he’s been single for over three years and called the dating rumors “ridiculous,” especially since he hasn’t even met some of the people he’s linked with.

“I mean, I’ve been single for over three years, and so many speculations and rumours link me with different people. And sometimes, it’s so ridiculous that I would have never even seen or met that person ever in my life. And I would be hearing rumours that why I’m with this person and this person where else I’d be like,” said Gill.

Punjab-born cricketer Shubman Gill said his full focus is on cricket, adding that he travels nearly 300 days a year with the team, leaving no time for a relationship.

Like, I know I’m so focused on what I need to do in my professional career. There is no space in my life to be with someone like 300 days a year. We are on the road travelling somewhere. So there is hardly any time to be able to be with someone or invest, you know, the time to be with someone in a relationship,” he added.

Shubman Gill denied all the rumors about his personal life. He also talked about dealing with crowd chants during matches, saying that when he’s focused, he only pays attention to the bowler and the game.

“I’ve told this many times, but I don’t know it’s like an automatic switch. I don’t think any batter can hear those chants. It’s like it’s hard for me to explain. But when you’re in the zone, you can’t hear people chanting or anything. You are so focused on the job that is there for you to finish. You’re so focused on okay, this bowler is bowling at me. This is how much we need to score or these are the things that I need to do,” said Gill.

Shubman Gill is currently leading the Gujarat Titans in IPL 2025. His team is on top of the points table with 12 points. Their next match is against the Rajasthan Royals on Monday, April 28, at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur.
