Kirsten, who has worked with Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli both when he was India’s coach and even led the Indian side to their second ODI World Cup Trophy in 2011, was asked if Gill is in the same league as the two other legends of Indian cricket.
Comparing Shubman Gill to Sachin and Virat Unfair

Gill Has the Credentials to Become a Great Player
The former India coach believes that Shubman Gill has all the credentials to become a great player for India, across all the formats. He noted that like any player, Gill will be met with challenges and obstacles on his way to reaching his full potential.
Conclusion
Gary Kirsten is confident that Shubman Gill has the ability and determination to become one of the best players in the world. He believes that it is too early to compare the young player to legends like Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli, and that Gill has the credentials to become a great player for India in all formats.
