Shubman Gill clears the air on having a crush on Rashmika Mandanna

Following reports suggesting that Team India batting sensation Shubman Gill has a crush on Rashmika Mandanna, both the cricketer and the Bollywood actress are creating a buzz around social media. When an Instagram post reported that Gill revealed that he has a crush on Mandanna, in reply Shubman cleared the air on whether he has a crush on the Pushpa actress or not.

"Which media interaction was this, that I myself don't know anything about," wrote Shubman Gill in the comment section to rubbish the reports.

Meanwhile, the 23-year-old has been reported to be dating Sara Ali Khan after the pair were pictured together having a meal in a restaurant. When asked if his dating rumours were true or not, he replied with a sheepish smile, "Maybe."

Previously, Gill was rumoured to be dating Sachin Tendulkar's daughter Sara Tendulkar while Rashmika is being reported to be dating Vijay Deverakonda, her Dear Comrade co-star.

Coming to cricket, Shubman Gill recently scored another century for India amassing 128 runs, his first Test hundred at home. Gill's century came in the first innings of India against Australia in the fourth and final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy.

"Honestly, what I was thinking was, I don't know when I'll get a wicket like this. I don't want to waste this opportunity playing a bad shot. That's what was going through my mind," said Gill after the match during his interaction with teammate Cheteshwar Pujara.

"I was still trying to be positive -- keep looking for those singles and that's what we were talking about when we were batting. Just be positive and if they bowl a bad ball, just go for your shots."

"I am blocking against spinners. I can`t block against fast bowlers as well. You have to balance it out and that`s what I was trying to do."
