Shubman Gill received a standing ovation from Sara Tendulkar at the renowned Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai for his outstanding performance against the Sri Lanka National Cricket Team during the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023.
Gill was a highly anticipated participant in the ICC Cricket World Cup in India, and numerous former cricketers placed their bets on him to conclude as the tournament's leading run scorer.Although the opening batsman has been in sensational form in 2023, he has not performed at his peak during the World Cup. Dengue prevented him from participating in the competition for a few matches, but upon his return, he accumulated four-match totals of 16, 53, 26, and 9.
Nevertheless, he performed exceptionally well against Sri Lanka and gave his all during the match. Gill, despite losing his opening partner Rohit Sharma in the very first over, maintained his composure and formed an extraordinary partnership with Virat Kohli.

Gill and Kohli combined for an additional 189 runs in 179 deliveries prior to the former's dismissal in the 30th over. Gill attempted to deflect Dilshan Madushanka's slower short ball past the wicket-keeper, but ultimately obtained an outside edge that fell into Kusal Mendis's clutches.
The Shubman Gill was dismissed after amassing 92 runs off 92 deliveries, including two sixes and eleven fours; he appeared disheartened after missing out on a ton. Sara Tendulkar and the entirety of Wankhede Stadium gave Gill a standing ovation in recognition of his innings as he made his way back to the pavilion.
Furthermore, as of 2023, Gill has surpassed Pathum Nissanka to claim the distinction for the most scores of 50 or higher in ODIs.

Sara and Shubman have reportedly been romantically involved for a considerable period of time. The rumor began to circulate in 2020 when Sara openly supported Shubman in an IPL match. Moreover, the allegations of their relationship were fueled by their social media activities. They were recently observed together at a restaurant in Mumbai for a Jio event.
