The inclusion of Shubman Gill in the Asia Cup 2025 squad as the vice-captain and the snub of Shreyas Iyer sparked a question: Who is better between Gill and Iyer? To find a solution to the burning debate, we seek help from ChatGPT. After a long breakdown of stats, ChatGPT has a clear-cut answer. 

The automatic system mostly idolized Shubman Gill as a prolific cricketer in Tests and T20Is, while it marked Shreyas Iyer mainly as an One Day International batter who has expertise in providing solidity in the middle order. For ChatGPT, Iyer is mostly an ODI batter who has great skills and temperament along with leadership qualities. Parallely, the system marked Gill as a multi-format cricketer who is a top-order batsman, specifically an opener. It is important to note that ChatGPT mostly recognizes India's Test captain as an opener. ChatGPT compared some of the recent stats of these two batters before providing any specific conclusion. 

Vital T20I stats of Gill and Iyer:

Iyer not only evolved as a captain but also aged finely as a batsman. For Team India, the right-handed batsman. As of now, Iyer has played 51 T20Is for the Men in Blue and maintained an average of 30.66, for a total of 1,104 runs with a 136.12 strike rate. In the Twenty20 format, an average of 30 is considered good. He made his T20I debut back in 2017 and played his last match in the format on December 3, 2023. In that match, which was against Australia in Bengaluru, Iyer scored a brilliant 53-run innings for the winning cause. Since then, he has not gotten to play a single T20I game for India.

Gill, 25, has played fewer T20Is than Yashasvi Jaiswal to date. In 21 T20Is, the top-order batter, who is assigned as the vice-captain for the Asia Cup after getting the captaincy role of the Test side, scored 578 runs, at an average of 30.42, including the best score of an unbeaten 126. Like Jaiswal, Gill also made his international debut in the format in 2023. Despite thrashing a century, Shubman’s T20I career has remained not up to the mark so far.

Here is the verdict from ChatGPT:

"Verdict: Who is "better"?

For future potential and across formats, Shubman Gill is ahead.

For middle-order stability in ODIs, Shreyas Iyer is very valuable.

If you want one name overall: Gill—more versatile, younger, and with a higher ceiling."
