77
Shubman Gill wears jersey number 77 for India across all formats.
Teams Played For
Gill has donned #77 for India (Tests/ODIs/T20Is since 2018, now Test/ODI captain), Punjab domestically, and IPL sides Gujarat Titans (captain) and Kolkata Knight Riders.
Jersey Significance
Number 77 stems from U19 World Cup unavailability of #7 (MS Dhoni's iconic number), so he doubled it—symbolizing his elegant strokeplay and record-breaking centuries.
Previous Numbers
No prior senior numbers; #77 adopted from U19 debut and stuck through IPL and international rise.?
Fun Fact
Gill's "two sevens" choice fueled his ascent to youngest Test captain; worn during double centuries in ODIs vs New Zealand.
