The unassuming Kane Williamson says he will be happy to help his Gujarat Titans captain Shubman Gill in any way he can as he considers the Indian a “great thinker”, a huge compliment coming from someone who is a bonafide legend in international cricket.


“He [Gill] is a great player and like I said a great cricketing brain, and I would certainly encourage him to walk that path and take his decisions. No doubt what 
he will look to do the same,” Williamson told PTI. The 24-year-old Gill was handed Gujarat Titans’s reins after incumbent Hardik Pandya made an abrupt exit from the franchise for his former team and spiritual base Mumbai Indians.

“I will be more than happy to help Shubman in any way I can and Shubman knows that,” said Williamson.
