Shubman Gill was taken aback during the coin toss against Punjab Kings on Sunday when presenter Danny Morrison ended up asked the Gujarat Titans captain about getting married.
The incident took place at the Narendra Modi Stadium, just after Gill won the toss and opted to bowl first in an Indian Premier League (IPL) match.
Everything was going well between Gill and Morrison until the former New Zealand pacer took an unexpected turn to ask the Indian Test and ODI skipper about his wedding. It must be noted that such questions aren't normal during the customary chats in a cricket match, especially at the time of the toss. "Still, Shubhers, there are no wedding bells around the corner? Anything that we need to know about," asked Morrison.
Gill, taken off-guard, paused for a moment and responded, "No. No. Nothing." Morrison said, "Good to see you," before turning to Punjab Kings captain Shreyas Iyer. This is not the first time Morrison left Gill speechless with the wedding question in an IPL game.
In IPL 2025, Morrison asked the same to Gill during the coin toss in a match between Gujarat Titans and Kolkata Knight Riders. "You're looking lovely, no wedding bells in the future. What's happening? You getting married?" Morrison had asked last year.
What's Shubman Gill's relationship status?
In 2025, Gill, in an interview with Hollywood Reporter India, the Indian cricketer revealed that he had been single for three years. "I mean, I've been single for over three years, and so many speculations and rumours link me with different people," Gill had said.
"And sometimes, it's so ridiculous that I would have never even seen or met that person ever in my life. And I would be hearing rumours about why I'm with this person and this person, where else I'd be, like," Gill had added.
"Like, I know I'm so focused on what I need to do in my professional career. There is no space in my life to be with someone for 300 days a year. We are on the road, travelling somewhere. So there is hardly any time to be able to be with someone or invest, you know, the time to be with someone in a relationship," Gill concluded.
