In a conversation, Gill revealed that Ishaan Kishan often uses his iPad to watch movies without headphones. Due to this, he is not able to sleep well at night. Gill tried to stop Kishan from watching the film, to which Kishan replied, "You are staying in my room."
Everything will be as I want. Regarding his double century, Gill also said that his primary thought was to avoid dominating the bowler as the wicket fell from one end. He looked extremely satisfied while batting throughout the innings. He was trying to hit a boundary in every over.
