"Marry Me Shubman": Banner For Shubman Gill Results In 'Kabir Singh' Meme Featuring Sara Tendulkar

India batter Shubman Gill manages to allure limelight during live cricket matches, even in the ones where he fails to deliver. Gill, who isn’t married thus far, found himself at the receiving end of a marriage proposal while fielding in the second innings of the ongoing ICC World Test Championship 2021-2023 against Australia at The Oval.

“Marry Me Shubman,” read a banner held by a female fan of Indian origin. The same was brought to light by host broadcaster Star Sports Network’s cameraman in the second session of the third day of the all-important final.

It is worth mentioning that this girl in London isn’t the first one to have expressed interest in the right-handed batter. A fan, who shared similar a choice, had a request for a dating application in the hope of them playing a matchmaker between her and Gill.

While some Indian cricketers had responded in the negative after the third India-New Zealand T20I earlier this year, fast bowler Umesh Yadav had pulled Gill’s leg the next day.

Gill, whose personality and on-field success combine for an attractive prospect for the opposite gender, is in store to receive such heartening responses from fans in the future as well. Interestingly, the banner was enough a content for people to post hilarious memes around the same across social media platforms.

One such meme features Sara Tendulkar, daughter of Sachin Tendulkar. On this particular occasion, Sara’s face was cropped to a popular Shahid Kapoor-scene from Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s ‘Kabir Singh’ (2019). Riding a motorcycle, the actor is on his way to beat boys who had teased his love interest in this blockbuster Hindi movie.

Why Is Sara Tendulkar’s Name Linked To Shubman Gill?

It is to be noted that Sara’s name is often linked to Shubman due to their suspected relationship. Co-incidentally, the 23-year old player was teased by spectators who chanted Sara’s name during his next visit to Ahmedabad for a Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023 match.

The same was witnessed in Indore as well when former India captain Virat Kohli had provided a priceless reaction to the fans. It was as recent as Monday when Sara’s name had popped up yet again as a potential topic of conversation between Gill and India wicket-keeper batter Ishan Kishan.

That being said, it is noteworthy that neither of the two ever confirmed dating each other in spite of heaps of rumours in the recent years.
