Shubman Gill ended Babar Azam’s reign after 951 days to become the new No. 1 ODI batter in the world
With his remarkable achievement, Gill also joined an elite list of Indian batters to ever achieve the feat
Gill is the 4th Indian batter in history to ever achieve the numero uno spot in the one-day rankings
The Master Blaster was the first Indian to ever achieve the No. 1 ranking in ODI cricket. He attained the top spot for the first time in March 1996
Dhoni is fastest Indian to become No. 1, achieving the feat in just 38 ODI inns. He became the top ODI batter during 2006 series vs PAK in April
VK, who is currently No. 4, became the No. 1 ODI batter for the first time in 2013. Among Indians, he has the highest ODI rating in history at 911
Kohli (1258 days) is also third on list of No. 1 ODI batters with most consecutive days at the top after Viv Richards (1748) & Michael Bevan (1259)
Can Gill really make this No. 1 position his for years to come just like Kohli did in the past? Only time will tell
