The rumors and talks of a relationship between India cricketer Shubman Gill and the daughter of Sachin Tendulkar, Sara Tendulkar, sparked up once again after Sara posted a picture with a dog that looked very similar to the one that Gill has.
Shubman Gill and Sara Tendulkar have apparently known each other for more than four years as they have commented and reacted to each other’s Instagram posts and stories. A cheeky comment from Hardik Pandya in 2020 had first fired up relationship rumors between the two youngsters and that has only escalated since then whenever they post pictures or whenever Sara comes to watch Team India matches in which Gill played.
Most recently, Sara Tendulkar posted a picture of herself in a red dress standing near a cute dog. It didn’t take long for netizens to dig out an old picture from Shubman Gill with an exactly similar-looking dog – it could even be the same dog, some thought, further fuelling their dating and relationship chatter.

Meanwhile, Shubman Gill has cemented his place in the Test side at number 3 with a three brilliant innings against England in the last three Tests. This was after his place in the side was on the line amid a lean patch.
Gill managed scores of 23, 0, and 34 in the first three innings of the Test series. In what seemed like a defining knock from the youngster, he bounced back with a century in Vizag, before recording scores of 91 in Rajkot, and 52* in Ranchi, all in winning causes as India take a 3-1 lead after being 0-1 down.
The hallmark of his 52* in a tricky run chase was his toning down aggression and not going for boundaries until he felt the match was in the bag. His first boundary came off the 10th ball he faced.
He said, “This would probably go down as my only innings where I didn’t hit a boundary, like a four, after scoring a fifty. But you have to see the situation and you have to play the situation sometimes, and I think the way their bowlers were bowling, they were bowling really good lines. So it was important for us to just keep playing the game and not let the bowlers bowl too many maidens. Keep taking the singles, and as soon as they gave us anything loose, try to pounce on that.”
