Early life
Gill was born on 8 September 1999 into a Punjabi Sikh
family in Fazilka, Punjab.[11][12] His father, Lakhwinder
Singh, is an agriculturist who aspired to become a
cricketer. He has a sister named Shahneel Gill.[13] Gill
showed early promise in cricket, starting to pick up a bat
at the age of three. Seeing his interest in the game,
Lakhwinder decided to train him, and he used to bowl
500 to 700 balls every day to him.[14] In 2007, he moved
the family to Mohali, near the Punjab Cricket Association
Stadium, so that Gill could train at a higher level.[15][16]
Former Indian bowler Karsan Ghavri, impressed by Gill's
performance, asked his father to send him to the Under-
19 all India pace bowlers' camp when Gill was twelve
years old. Gill faced U-19 bowlers in the nets, and Ghavri,
seeing Gill play, asked PCA to put him into Punjab's U-14
team.[17] During an Inter-District Under-16 match against
Amritsar, Gill, playing for Mohali, scored 351 runs and
:
shared a record opening stand of 587 runs with Nirmal
Singh. At the age of 14, he scored a double-century on
his Under-16 debut for Punjab in the Vijay Merchant
Trophy.[18][19]
Domestic career
Gill made his List A debut for Punjab in the 2016–17 Vijay
Hazare Trophy on 25 February 2017 against Vidharbha,
during which he scored 11 runs before being run out.[20]
In his second match against Assam, he scored his
maiden List A century, scoring 121 runs off 129 balls.[21]
His first-class debut came against Bengal in the 2017–18
Ranji Trophy on 17 November 2017.[22] Later in the same
month, in his second first-class match, he scored his
maiden century while batting for Punjab against Services.
He scored 129 runs off 142 balls.[23]

final where Gill would score a half-century, however, the
team would ultimately lose to CSK, coming second.[66]
After the announcement of two new teams entering the
league, each team was allowed to retain up to 4 players
but Gill was not retained.[67]
