On one hand, every player wants to earn millions of rupees, on the other hand, there is a player who is willing to give up millions of rupees for his team. We are talking about Shubman Gill who has made a big sacrifice ahead of IPL 2025. According to media reports, the Gujarat Titans team will retain both Rashid Khan and Shubman Gill, but what is interesting is that the first player to be retained is not It will not be Shubman Gill but Rashid Khan. Shubman Gill is the captain of the team but despite this he is ready to be retained after Rashid.
Shubman Gill is a great name
That Shubman Gill is set to be retained at number two is a big deal in itself. In fact, this player has become a big name in the Indian team. He is considered the next T20 and ODI captain. He is compared to Virat Kohli. He brings the highest brand value among current players, but is still poised to be retained at No. 2.
Now, since Shubman will remain at number 2, it also means that this player will earn less money than Rashid Khan. As per IPL retention rules, the first retained player will have to pay Rs 18 million while the second retained player will get Rs 14 million. Which means Gill will receive less money than Rashid.
Shubman Gill’s decision is surprising

Well, Gill also knows that if anyone is the biggest match-winner for Gujarat Titans, it is Rashid Khan. If Rashid Khan is not in the Gujarat team, the balance of this team may deteriorate. This is the reason why news emerged that if Gill remains at number one, Rashid Khan may participate in the auction. Now Gill has stopped this news.
