Early life

In Fazilka, Punjab, on September 8, 1999, Gill was born into a Punjabi Sikh family. Lakhwinder Singh, his father, was an agriculturalist who once dreamed of being a cricket player. Shahneel Gill is the name of his twin sister. Gill began using a bat at the age of three, demonstrating his early potential in cricket. Lakhwinder chose to train him after noticing his enthusiasm for the game, and he used to bowl 500–700 balls to him each day. In order to enable Gill to train at a better level, he relocated the family to Mohali in 2007, close to the Punjab Cricket Association Stadium. Former Indian bowler Karsan Ghavri encouraged Gill’s father to send him to the Under-19 team after noticing his outstanding performance when Gill was twelve years old.
