He is talented. There is no doubt, but there is a big difference between showing talent and being a star. Gill's technique is great, but we shouldn't get ahead of ourselves. People see him as the next Virat Kohli, but let me make it clear that there is only one Virat Kohli. How many dangerous bowlers I have faced and the conditions in which I have scored runs cannot be measured by an innings by Gill. It will take time for him to do this.'

Kohli is falsely quoted in the video as claiming his unique position in Indian cricket. People talk about the next Virat Kohli but there is only one Virat Kohli. I have faced big bowlers.
