WATCH: Shubman Gill loses cool in heated discussion with umpires during GT vs SRH match | Ipl News

Gujarat Titans skipper Shubman Gill wore an uncharacterically animated self during the IPL 2025 match against the SunRisers Hyderabad at the Narendra Modi Stadium, voicing his displeasure to multiple umpiring decisions on Friday evening.
Despite a comfortable 38-run victory amidst a jam-packed home ground, tempers flared when Gill was seen holding lengthy chats with the umpires across both innings. Batting first, the GT captain led the team to yet another formidable start, smashing 76 off 38 balls before a run-out marked his dismissal.
The decision the TV umpire came under scrutiny as Gill was seen charging towards the striker’s end before a throw from short fine-leg was seemingly parried to the stumps SRH wicket-keeper Heinrich Klaasen. However, Gill was not pleased with the decision to deem him out after Klaasen’s gloves were seen to be in proximity of flicking the bails down before the ball.

Walking back, Gill was soon seen having a chat with the fourth umpire on the sidelines before being nudged to settle down in the dugout his GT teammates.
That was not all for the night. During SRH’s threatening chase led Gill’s Punjab teammate Abhishek Sharma, the left-hander got away with a lbw decision, further irking the Gujarat captain.

Off the fourth ball in the 14th over, seamer Prasidh Krishna’s yorker hit Abhishek flush on the pads as he attempted to shuffle across the crease. The DRS review later displayed a verdict in SRH and Abhishek’s favour, saving the batter the on-field umpire’s call. Gill immediately held another fiery chat with the on-field umpires before Abhishek attempted to drag him away from the discussion.
Defending a 224-run total, GT would still secure a comfortable win, restricting SRH to 186 for six in 20 overs. Gill did not back down from his outbursts even in the post-match chat, admitting that emotions are bound to run high sometimes on the field.Story continues below this ad
The ball tracking showed impact to be the umpire’s call, and hence, Abhishek got a reprieve.
“There was a little bit of a discussion with me and the umpire, sometimes there are so many emotions involved as you give your 110 percent, there are bound to be some emotions,” Gill said.
